Shoot while moving? I'm pretty sure it would be worth it to take that extra 2 seconds to line up and don't miss your shot. In 2014 we had an ultrasonic give us the distance from the wall, and our shooter would adjust itself. Combine that with a camera to auto-center the target and you're on a very good path.
