Saying non credible af here, but in theory one could add a upwards facing shotgun shells on top of the helmet, triggered by a Camera/proximity sensor if it detects a drone/falling grande. Maybe add a gyroscope to check if the helmet is actually facing upwards before triggering. All in all unit cost could be below 250$
- 6x 12 gauge shells with bird shot
- Raspberry pi type controller
- USB cam
- Laser distance sensor
- gyroscope
- servo trigger
ok throw in 20$ more for 2 servos to gumball the thing in the right direction
Let’s kick it up a notch and get Raytheon working on a helmet-mounted Phalanx that fires .22LR. The old farts at the trap & skeet range are gonna be in for a surprise when I show up with that bad boy.
