<\/br><\/code><\/p>\n

\n

It looks like something out of a video game<\/a>, but this gadget is real: a portable, mechanical, computerized, laser-guided knife gun that actually throws spinning knives end over end through the air (via Gizmodo<\/em><\/a>).<\/p>\n

This isn\u2019t some slingshot<\/a> or spiral Kunai shooter<\/a> that flings those blades straight ahead, oh no \u2014 Quint Builds<\/a> set out to build a gadget that can accurately throw knives just like a pro, nailing a target 10 times in a row at different distances. That meant painstakingly calculating how to spin a knife the right number of times to land tip-first, again and again and again \u2014 and employing a homemade lidar laser guidance system to measure that distance and adjust the knife\u2019s trajectory accordingly. <\/p>\n

Otherwise, a knife might harmlessly bounce off the target… just like mine did so many times at the last Renaissance Faire I attended.<\/p>\n

The final contraption dispenses upwards of 10 knives from an integrated, spring-loaded magazine onto an electromagnet attached to a carriage, which zooms forward along its track at 10 meters per second thanks to a pair of motorized belts, which are in turn powered by a pair of 36V hoverboard batteries. Once the carriage reaches the midpoint of its track, the electromagnet is programmed to release the knife \u2014 letting it hit a target up to 15 feet away. <\/p>\n

I guess you can add \u201cknife throwing\u201d to the list of tasks where humans are becoming obsolete!<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
