Got to get one of those.

Hmm... perhaps it would work even BETTER if it had TWO paintguns attached!

If I could have a whole battery of these things... those damned squirrels, groundhogs, and armadillos would be toast. Yes, it would be like a World War I machine gun battery.

Where can I buy one of these?

I've seen this before, he said he intends to sell them on his website...somewhere

I want an automated WWI Machine-gun Battery too, keep out all those pesky squirrels, cats, dogs, hitmen, cops, rival mobsters...whoops...

It's gonna take more than paintballs to mow down cops and rival mobsters.

I think I need one of those too!

On the squirrel front however, nothing you can do short of a BB gun is going to take care of the problem. Squirrels are smart and will solve problems to get at whatever food it is they want to get at. No other method will work except making it painful to enter your yard.

If true that is the most awesome thing ever except for one with a real gun. Imagine the military appliacations.......

The Israelis are one of the tops in this field,

They have automated recognition cameras tied in with auto-tracking weapons for their autonomous border and facility security.

We did an evaluation of one of their tracking cameras and it was pretty impressive. Very few false positives (which is real important with weapons)

What this kid did seems to be focused on movement detection and tracking, which is still pretty damn impressive.

I say, did someone say "Squirrel problem?" Mr. Rocky Mcbee loves squirrels and for a nominal fee, he is more than willing to chase them for you.

And nothing kicks squirrel's a$$ better than an armo(u)red Boston Terrier!

"Where da squirrels at?" Lemme at um!

Niki always had a smug look, lol.

Niki never caught a squirrel (thank heavans) But Rocky has caught the wild chicken that lives in our yard several times (bad dog

) He just got a mouthful of feathers and the chicken got a sore butt. Rocky is really fast! Faster than Niki ever was.

Tell that wild beast that he better not eat any mice.
