"Pain Beam" to be used by the L.A. County Sheriffs Office
An invisible heat-beam weapon developed in secrecy by the military is set for use in a U.S. jail.
Law enforcement officials recently revealed plans to use the nonlethal device at the Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department's Pitchess Detention Center, according to the Los Angeles Daily News. The weapon, which shoots an invisible beam of energy, would be used in the prisoners' dormitory to stop an assault or break up a fight.
Called the Assault Intervention Device, it uses millimeter waves to heat the top layer of skin, causing an intense burning sensation that forces the person being targeted to move away immediately.

I've seen video of this being tested (on futureweapons maybe?). It seems to be pretty damn slick

I'm sure that the ACLU, Amnest International, and PETA will get their panties in a twist over this! I'd like to volunteer Captain America for a test ride.

Pretty funny....the military and Darpa have been working on Beam Directed Energy Weapons for years. If you cruise past the Boeing Seattle Plant, you can often see a 747 with an odd nose. That is a laser capable of heating the skin of a missle enough to cause it to explode.
The poor inmates could be ignited lke a wooden match if they wanted to.

Sweet. As hot as it gets in Louisiana , I'm not convinced that I would notice. Zapping you with the device would produce either the world's biggist hot foot or the world's hottest Big Foot. We report , you decide.
