Autoloading Paintball Tank Cannon
Posted on April 13th, 2009 by Chip
Dead-by-Dawn is one serious “scenario paintball” team (check out this article in Wired Magazine). These guys built a tank from a turf loader, but hey – other teams have tanks – DbD decided to put a double-barrel auto-loading cannon on theirs – and they used an AutomationDirect DL06 PLC to automate the loading and firing of that cannon.

They have promised to post a write up here soon. Until then here’s a link to their site, be sure to check out the “Tech” page, with YouTube vids and much more about the Necronomicar, and the cannon: “Boom, Boom”.
