Flashlight Weapon Makes Targets Throw Up
It looks like a big flashlight — but it's really a nonlethal weapon
designed to make you sick.
Intelligent Optical Systems, Inc., of Torrance, Calif., has been
granted a contract by the Department of Homeland Security to develop
what it calls the "LED Incapacitator," according to a DHS online
newsletter.
The handheld device using light-emitting diodes to emit super-bright
pulses of light at rapidly changing wavelengths, causing
disorientation, nausea and even vomiting in whomever it's pointed at.
