USB Missile Launcher with Webcam – See All the Action
Dream Cheeky has carved out a name for themselves with the USB missile launcher and USB circus cannon. Recently the bloggisphere reported on the updated version: USB missile launcher with webcam.
Dream Cheeky partnered with Microsoft on this one and integrated the webcam and control of the robotics through MSN instant messenger. For that reason, it’s called the USB MSN Missile Launcher.
This added user experience lets a remote person view and control the missile launcher to pelt the enemy during a moment of weakness. I reviewed the USB Circus Cannon a while back, and if the webcam version is as loud as the circus cannon version, there is no chance of a surprise attack.
The launcher comes with a detachable video camera and PC software for communication and control. Getting an on-line & live single person shoot’em game is as easy as a MSN invitation.
If you are in the US, Amazon has a full list of USB Missile Launchers and although the webcam version isn’t available [at Amazon], it will be shortly so click and check! I saw USB Missile Launchers starting at $25ish bucks.
