How complicated would it be to program a robot to shoot a gun?

New ctb method discovered?

Just the small hurdle of learning how to program

I'd say it would probably be easier to pull the trigger urself. hypothetically

it'd have to be good at aiming. it also depends on the kind of gun you plan on using. i don't think anyone would be interested in making a gun robot besides micheal reeves lol

Yes but therein lies the problem

You make some good points.
I better enrol in a course asap then

i mean hypothetically it's really not that hard, programming isn't even required. You just need to have the gun held securely and then have a way to move a string with enough force to pull the trigger. You could probably set something up with those lego motors, hell you can even go full rube goldberg machine with it lol. If you actually end up going through with this method id recommend testing its accuracy somehow though, you don't want to mess up the shot.

True, ty for the info
Ideally would be great if i can ctb while asleep but it's okay

Not super difficult. I took a robotics class when I was 16 and was easily able to breeze through the projects. Would I be able to do it now? No, I don't remember what I learned back then. But there's a wealth of knowledge on the internet, including AI tools that can help you getting supplies if you were interested. If you wanted it to be super simple it'd just have a gun locked in place, aiming at wherever you want it, and then it would be programmed to pull the trigger at a certain time. You don't even need a full fledged robot for it, just some basic programming telling it to slide an object backwards to pull the trigger at a certain time.
