This places the camera as close to the barrel of the gun as possible while leaving enough clearance for access to the camera's USB and Ribbon Connectors. Once you have assembled the Turret with Dart Gun, attach the Pixy Mount with Side Bracket to the Trigger Servo using 4 x M2*6 Bolts, with the camera oriented upside down. You are going to build the Pixy Mount shown in Option 1 in the Pixy Mount Assembly Overview, attaching it to the Servo Side Mount Bracket. Once you have completed these, return here for further instruction. If not, follow the Assembly instructions for each of the kits using the links here. You should have assembled the kits while following the getting started guides.
#Arduino camera turret code
The Pixy Getting Started Guide will run you through getting the latest firmware, which is necessary to run the version of the Arduino code available in this guide. Desktop RoboTurret Getting Started Guide.If you haven't completed these, follow through the guide with the links below, and return here when you're finished for further instruction.
You should have followed through the getting started guides for each of the kits and ran the test code. You should pick up a Sensor Shield for easier, safer wiring. If you would like to build this project and you already have an Arduino/Geekduino board, you can use the Robot Geek Pan and Tilt Kit w/ Servos instead of the RobotGeek Desktop RoboTurret.
Each part is necessary to complete the kit as it is made in this guide. This project is an amalgam of several RobotGeek kits. If the object stays still for too long, the foam dart gun will engage, firing a dart at the object! The Geekduino will then move the pan and tilt servos so that the object is in the center of the Pixy's field of view. The Pixy can be 'taught' to recognize different colors, and when it 'sees' an object with the matched color, it will send data to the Geekduino. With the Auto-Turret Project, you can automatically track down and fire upon your enemies! This project utilizes a Pixy camera module, a RobotGeek pan/tilt base, a foam dart gun, and a Geekduino to coordinate the components.
