I Made an Auto-Aiming Nerf Blaster - It CAN'T Miss

I built a 3D printed, aim assisting nerf blaster robot that can lock-on to and track targets automatically, saving you from embarrassment over your awful aim. Probably. It does this using a raspberry pi and pi camera as the brains of the operation to identify and track targets, which communicates with an adafruit feather on a custom breakout board running custom firmware (seeing a theme here?) which controls the stepper motors and servo. Fun fact, tuning PID loops isn't fun, especially when there's some software bugs sprinkled in!

A big thanks to Michael Reeves for his involuntary guest appearance. If you somehow ever see this, yo let's collab. I'm short too so you'll have one less thing to be self conscious about.
