The robot uses a combination of computer vision techniques like image processing and depth imaging to detect the targets and drives the servos accordingly to shoot them using a gun. The angles of rotation of the motors are determined by using inverse kinematics and Vector Algebra. The system is currently implemented on a 45cm Humanoid as a proof of concept. The robot can shoot moving targets by predicting their position by calculating the acceleration and velocity. We are currently working on implementing Machine learning based facial recognition on the robot to differentiate between friends and foes.

This robot is designed to serve as a surveillance robot in top secret research facilities and as a sniper in covert operations.
