Lately a friend of mine and I have talked about a new robotic arm project, as a summer activity. The idea is to create a stationary autonomous robot that can detect motion in the immediate vicinity and activate a pump to spray water in the direction of the object.
The project will be based on servos, brackets for mechanics, electric pump, motion and range sensors, video streaming, and java programming/sequencing.

Setup
A company named Lynxmotion is offering an excellent range of parts to build a robotic arm. With all kinds of bracket and connectors, it's possible to build almost everything imaginable. Makes it very flexible to build things.
