Pyrocket is used to operate usb foam dart launchers. it supports many models, and for some, has considerably more functionality than the drivers provided by the manufacturer. one may find it useful as a starting point for controlling other usb devices, or just for waging cubicle warfare.

pyrocket automatically detects the launcher(s) and a joystick, and a video window is provided for webcam-enabled devices. pyrocket currently supports the "circus cannon", "original" and "webcam" usb missile launchers sold by dream cheeky, as well as the striker ii usb laser guided missile launcher marketed by ninja gizmos.
