Inspiration
- California fires ## What it does
- Tracks something that we tell it too and follows it throughout the camera view. ## How we built it
- Creating a CAD model
- 3D printing ## Challenges we ran into The 3D printer printed a bit too small and we had to file things down. The tracking software kept crashing and didn't work well in the beginning. ## Accomplishments that we're proud of
- The tracking works better than we thought it would.
- The turret can move with two degrees of freedom.
- The Arduino communicates with a python script. ## What we learned
- OpenCV
- Solidworks
- Image processing ## What's next for Turret Tracker
- Refining the tracking system using AI to ignore everything but what we want tracked.
- Outfitting the turret to actually shoot water or some other fire extinguisher.
