Tuesday, September 25th, 2007

Raytheon has developed a new “non-lethal” weapon called the Silent Guardian. It can shoot a microwave beam 1/2 mile and scatter people by causing extreme pain.

I’m sure this device will be put to good use keeping our troops safe, but I am also certain that it will be widely misused. Here’s more information. The picture below is a sample device at a trade show, the full sized version is the size of a plasma TV.

Million dollar idea: a glass toaster! You’ll never burn another slice of toast because you can see it’s progress. The outside of the toaster stays cool, so it’s safe to touch. So simple… so brilliant.
