Here is the toy gun I plan to use: Its called Adventure Force marketed by Walmart and made in China by Toy Things. Here is the Raspberry Pi Model B: Here is the accelerometer: Its a triple axis accelerometer breakout board MMA8452Q Bought it from SparkFun. The first photo shows my gun gutted of all electronics except for the battery compartment leads and a couple switches with associated wires. The cocking mechanism with spring was left in as was the trigger and spring assembly. The next photo also shows an area where I used an inverted cone sanding bit on my dremel tool to carve out the area where the motor was originally mounted. The final figure shows where each part will go where there is enough clearance to close the gun. The XBOX controller board has had almost everything removed from it except for electronics and fits nicely in the cooling shaft (actual name?). The Raspberry PI fits in the reload cartridge. The PWM board fits in the main trigger handle while the accelerometer can be seen in a flat area at the top just behind the XBOX controller board.
