![]() ![]() I used a variety of different devices, but could never find things that would work properly. I dabbled with arduino and programming, but I wasnt getting anywhere. I dont have a ton of spare time, but when I was able to I would spend time with this project trying to get it working. I got one of these sensors and played with this and it was always in the back of my mind to build this mind controlled nerf gun. Rather I cling to the idea that if I work hard enough at something and study I can figure it out. I love all things electronic, but would not describe myself as having a gift per-se. I am a trained classic scholar and I sell mobile phones for a living. I also left my original instructable unedited so that there would be some continuity in the development of the idea. I didnt include tons of pictures in the version 2 because I wanted you (the reader) to be able to grasp the idea and apply to your scenarios more loosely because i feel thats more organic and natural to how to come up with some of this stuff. Finally I have included the workings of a little prank I pulled on an office co worker. I had designed the gun to fire when you heard the phrase "say hello to my little friend." I have also included a little clip of it working. I also fleshed out what i had originally designed. I basically made it so you could power it like a normal nerf gun, but instead of regular D batteries this would run on a mobile power bank. Since my original instructable I decided to make some small modifications on the gun and overall design. At the end I will hit on some variations of this project that I have made and would like to make, but my hope is that you can see a core of an idea and make something interesting for yourself out of it. With that in mind, this instructable is really ideal for someone who is starting out as a "primer of sorts." To the more trained user it might give you some basics to build on and make some interesting versions. ![]() Fact is you could be reading this from anywhere in the world and it may not be possible for you to get your hands on the exact same parts as I am using. I find often instructables focus on the specifics of building something and can sometimes get lost in specifics. In other words, I found a project I liked and tried it, but it was too hard so I modified it (cut corners). This project was born out of youthful wonder, turned into adult pragmatism. This is a nerf elite hyperfire gun modified with a constant power source and that constant power source is controlled by an arduino grove Bluetooth and relay.
