Saying non credible af here, but in theory one could add a upwards facing shotgun shells on top of the helmet, triggered by a Camera/proximity sensor if it detects a drone/falling grande. Maybe add a gyroscope to check if the helmet is actually facing upwards before triggering. All in all unit cost could be below 250$
- 6x 12 gauge shells with bird shot
- Raspberry pi type controller
- USB cam
- Laser distance sensor
- gyroscope
- servo trigger
Seems like a recipe for neck problems and neck-related fatalities
You leave behind a crate of these with manuals for the enemy to find when you move positions.
Shotguns ain’t that powerful, what are we going to stick 2ga brass slugs up there?
