Pentagon prepping non-lethal “light and sound” weapon
December 13, 2007 – 10:30 amFiled under: Misc. Gadgets
Blissfully unaware that it’s up against a generation raised in the sensory madhouses known as techno clubs, the Pentagon is reportedly working on a non-lethal weapon that utilizes light and sound to sicken and disorient targets. Like Homeland Security’s “pukelight,” the so-called Distributed Sound and Light Array Debilitator being developed by Penn State’s Applied Research Laboratory is meant to induce a feeling of nauseousness, in this case combining light patterns with “aversive noises.” So yeah, like we said, sounds pretty effective unless you happen to run into a group of insurgents hardened by years of all-night raving and the accompanying neurological damage.
