Tase me bro! Here’s a video of CBS reporter David Martin getting zapped by a ray gun. The gun is a non-lethal weapon that could be used for crowd dispersion. The ray gun can shoot up to 500 yards away, much further than existing non-lethal weapons. It shoots out 130 degree (F) heat at it’s victim or what feels like “scalding water” according to Mr. Martin. The system uses millimeter waves, which can penetrate only 1/64th of an inch of skin, just enough to cause discomfort. The waves can’t go through walls or glass but they can penetrate clothing. It is expected to go into production for the military in 2010.
