Remember that scene in Aliens 2 when the space marines used several automated sentry turrets temporarily hold off a horde of alien xenomorphs?  Well, if this youtube video is any indication this kid has created a near perfect replica using a computer controlled painball gun.  Its accuracy is uncanny, even several attempts to fool the turret with another moving object only resulted in a few second head start. Video after the jump.

From the looks of it, its all off the shelf parts and the software is run by a laptop.  Very impressive.  Check out paintballsentry.com for more details.  There are so many potential application or other attachments.  Thumbs up.
