Title: I’m building a robot that can track nerf darts and shoot them out of the air.<p>I’ve worked on other projects in robotics and object tracking (perception for self driving cars), but this has a whole different set of challenges.<p>Nerf rival rounds travel at over 100 feet per second and shooting them out of the air requires aiming systems that are precise to less than half the width of a human hair and timing precision of 600 times faster than the blink of an eye.<p>This is the first part of the series of me building the project (and my first video!) so I’d love to hear what you think!
