The purpose of this capstone project was to design a sensor turret system that could house the 3 sensors the WILD Goblin will utilize in its missions (laser rangefinder, SWIR camera, and LWIR camera) as well as orient this specific set of sensors in a two degree of freedom (pitch and roll) gimbal mechanism using software we developed to control the turret.
