Posting this here since I'll need a microcontroller (I think?) that can do the following, and need to know what to buy.
Basically, the project is to make a working turret from the Portal games.
I know I need some kind of motion sensor, speakers, and a motor, and a power supply... I think.
I'm fluent in assembly and C, so programming the logic and decoding audio and whatnot is no problem, I just need to know what to buy (and I have friends that can help me with soldering / assembling the parts).
I guess I'm mostly asking for what I need to start -- what microcontroller should I get to start (something that can take sensor input from the motion, and control the motor + speakers)?
Thanks for any help!
