Hear me out.....

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

  • Drone dropped munitions rarely land directly on a soldiers head; rather they land nearby and injure surrounding soldiers with the blast/fragmentation. Without some sort of active aim, this thing will almost never hit, if it even triggers.

    • ok throw in 20$ more for 2 servos to gumball the thing in the right direction

      • Let's kick it up a notch and get Raytheon working on a helmet-mounted Phalanx that fires .22LR. The old farts at the trap & skeet range are gonna be in for a surprise when I show up with that bad boy.
