Puke inducing flashlight

[Coop]

Yeah, some effective weapon this is going to be.... close your eyes and it doesn't work....

 

[PhotonWrangler]

All I saw were a few flashes of green...?

 

[olrac]

Gak! this is the puke inducing thread. lol

 

[Marduke]

If you read the original thread (link above) you'll see that the idea is different wavelengths of light at varying frequencies, which for most people will cause a nauseating sensation. Sure, you can close your eyes to avoid any effects, but how are you going to cause trouble if your eyes are closed?? Did you really expect anyone in the crowd to show any effects after being indirectly flashed for all of 2 seconds?

bingo...prety hard to act out if oyu have to close your eyes all the time to avoid upchucking.....

I will admit though...as interesting as the wavelength flashlight is, it does'nt beat the low frequency sopunder that some militaries and police use to make people completely lose control of their bowels, even if they plug their ears...

I saw a tv show about that audio thing and apparently it really works. The main problem righ now is that it's fairly large and not usable as an EDC device.

Bushman was making a reference to the mythical "brown note", which doesn't exist. The new system deployed in Iraq is just plain old LOUD, and extremely directional. If you cross two systems at one person's stomach, then you get some interesting effects.

Is that like crossing the streams? :tinfoil:

Nice. Brown noise. Black Water.

Does someone know if this flashlight will be available to civilians too?

Almost surely NOT. And even if they were (by some moronic choice), they would probably be illegal to export.

 

[Tachikoma]

Why not? I mean, they sell the Taser x26 to general public and this flashlight is certanly less harmful:candle:

One will be, but it won't be the clunky junk he was waving about.

As for the video of the unit operating, well, let's just say there are others working on this concept and they have better solutions... (I could say more but there'd need to be some NDAs involved. )

oO

rapidly flashing lights? ::starts to disco::

The taser x26 was a civilian weapon to start with (mainly for when firearms would be illegal to purchase, own, or carry), and is one-on-one. The puke light is more of a crowd control tool. Imagine if someone stood in front of a movie theater and turned it on. By the time people figured out what it was and to look away, the damage would be done...

"Oh my brothers..."

"I began to feel really sick. But I could not shut my glazzies. And even if I tried to move my glazz-balls about, I still could not get out of the line of fire of this picture."

:shakehead:sigh::sick2:

 

[Lightraven]

Of course that line could only come from A Clockwork Orange.

I doubt this item would be for sale to citizens, unfortunately. It is mostly up to the company. Then the governments can try to restrict sales by law.

Some companies only want to deal with government contracts. I get the feeling from the articles that the developer of this device has that intent.

Pepper spray also has a mass effect of blinding and debilitating people and is widely available. It also works in full daylight.

Taser has some interesting controls on its sale to citizens--unique in my experience.
