Hold on now ...
The paintball gun uses .68- caliber RPS Marballizer ammunition, and is supplied air from a 4500-psi accumulator. The 1440-cubic-inch accumulator can hold enough air to fire approximately 1500 rounds before refilling
Only 1500 shots off a 1440ci tank?????

Seems like if your going to drop that kind of coin into a project, you'd front a couple extra bucks to stick a halo or warp on it with increased capacity, no?

LOL
Why not build a huge agitated loader and then mount it on a warp?

Cool! They got air for 1500 rounds and a 200 round capacity with the revy... duh... and these guys are supposed to be smart.
Someone didn't do their homework, you're not going to surpress much of a crowd with 200 rounds, especially once they figure out that it's non leathal firepower.
Why not use the dome cover and make use of the space the revy takes up? A bulk loader that can carry 1k+ rounds would be much better then the puny revy.

Potential future work includes automatic target detection/tracking, coordinated/cooperative targeting between multiple autonomous weapons pods
Now this would be cool :P Would be fun to see Dynasty vs the paintball equilivant of Deep Blue

LOL did anyone watch the video? Gotta love the blood red fill marb's. Maybe that is to *Trick* a crowd into thinking it's a real gun.
You also gotta love the hi-tech way they strapped the thing down. Bungee cords.

An accumulator (unlike a dedicated tank) only stores pressure for immediate use. There is a compressor somewhere on that machine to refill the accumulator on the fly. Theoretically, It will never run out of air.

I sent them an email on hopper suggestions with actual supporting evidence on why they should use it, lol. I like the boomstick though :)

are we 100% sure that's an angel? It sure looks a lot like a shocker (old style) in the pic wiht the tank showing.

Now if they could only figure out a way for Deep Paint to wipe, do Superman slides to cover front hits and do a Ninja Salm from the woods! Too Cool :)

I kinda wonder how they deal with chopping? I also agree with Evil Bob; how do they plan on keeping that hopper full? I bet if they had a warp remotely placed with an intellifeed link, they could work from there... pretty nifty though.
