Today I was reading about a device the military has access to called ADS that is used as a crowd control measure. It fires a concentrated beam of electromagnetic waves at targets, stimulating the sensation of being on fire.
Is it possible to defeat this new tool of worker oppression and if so how? Can protesters affordably defeat this measure on a mass scale?
Because i am an engineer. And you just compared water to petrol, because they are both liquids.
IR is light. Radio waves are not. They may both be photons, but they are quite different. Like ice and liquid water. Both H2), both different.,
Mylar does not reflect radio. Metals do. So unless your mylar ALSO includes metal, it won’t work. Just because light and radiowaves both have a frequency, does not make them the same.
It’s NOT IR. All your comments are wrong.
Ultra high freq radio has some very bizarre properties, like making things of a certain size catch fire, but not other things. But it’s still basically radio. OR microwave if you like.
There are only 2 ways it can cause pain: Either by actually doing things to you, like cooking you just a bit. Which would mean that if they left it on too long, it would do some damage.
OR, it’s artificially stimulating your nerves, due to nerve induction. Yes, it’s a real thing, used in some forms of therapy. Yes, you could make the bene gesserit pain box. This would mean that toughing it out without getting hurt, is possible.
Also, you have LRADS [sound based] mixed up with ADS [Microwave].
ADS should be blockable by anything that stops microwaves. Sheet metal for example. Make a light shield out of sheet metal. Also, microwaves interact with water molecules. That’s how they cook stuff. This should be similar. a wet blanket should also stop it. Wrap yourself in several layers of metal foil.
