	Sonic weaponry - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Some sonic weapons are currently in limited use or in research and development by military and police forces.
		The resulting weapon is the size of a truck, fragile, and has a shorter range than missiles or artillery shells.
		Ultrasound disintegration of solids in liquids is well known in industry, and could be adapted into a weapon.

	Mind Control and Psyochotronic Weapons
		Psychotronic weapons remain, at least for a layman uninformed of secret military research, in the sphere of science fiction, since so far none of the published scientific experiments was presented in the way which would allow for its replication.
		The beam is formed by a combination of sound and ultrasound waves which causes that a person targeted by this beam hears the sound inside of his head.
		It states: within the territory of the Russian Federation is prohibited the circulation of weapons and other objects the effects of the operation of which are based on the use of electromagnetic, light, thermal, infra-sonic or ultra-sonic radiations" (30).

	Nonlethal Weapons
		Weapons that are explicitly designed and primarily employed so as to incapacitate personnel or materiel, while minimizing fatalities, permanent injury to personnel, and undesired damage to property and the environment.
		Unlike conventional lethal weapons that destroy their targets principally through blast, penetration and fragmentation, non- lethal weapons employ means other than gross physical destruction to prevent the target from functioning.
		Weapons that can be switched from "lethal" to "nonlethal" by a simple mechanism, having multiple barrels, or using ammunition which can be switched at launch (single barrel, lightened logistic chain) [529].

	A New Future for 3-D Ultrasound - By Nancy Anisfield - Military Medical Technology
		Until recently, 3-D ultrasound made its mark primarily in the field of fetal imagingâ”âbaby faces,â as it is often referred to by many sonographers.
		The ultrasoundâs 2-D images are then assembled into a 3-D volume using the location data as a mapping guide, permitting visualization similar to that of a CT or MRI.
		A third advantage of sensor 3-D ultrasound is the ability to quickly scan in one plane and later re-slice the data set in another.

	Welcome to Eurotimes
		Laser biometry is inherently more accurate than ultrasound because it measures the true axial length along the line of sight, since the patient actually fixates on the laser beam.
		Ultrasound biometry uses the 200-year-old principle of the Italian scholar Lazzaro Spallanzani who discovered that bats utilise ultrasound for locating purposes.
		The same principal is used to assess the time delay in the echo received from the corneal surface, the anterior lens surface and the retinal surface, from which the anterior chamber depth and the axial length are then calculated.

	Fortean Times - Sonic Weapons
		The theory behind infrasound weapons tends to focus on the idea that certain frequencies can be used as both a weapon and as a method of crowd control.
		The group’s ultrasound experiments were equally notorious; using an array of piezo-electric speakers (“because they were cheap” remembers Monte), they used frequencies in excess of 20,000Hz in a ‘sonic loop’, creating a continual, culminating wave.
		The best known were the ‘V’ weapons and the rocket and jet-propelled fighters like the Me163 and the Me262 – but Allied intelligence, by the end of the war, had uncovered a vast array of far more bizarre projects, the development of which had been encouraged by Germany’s non-centralised and chaotic approach to RandD.

	3D Ultrasound Imaging
		Ultrasound equipment can be one-tenth the cost of computed tomography (CT) or magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) machines and does not require specially built facilities for radiation protection.
		In addition, ultrasound is a non-ionizing or lower energy form of radiation compared with x-ray CT.
		The images are much improved over conventional ultrasound by using a patent-pending technique of optimizing the signal uniformly throughout the image plane.

	Oh all right,
		Non-lethal weapons are discriminate weapons that are explicitly designed and employed so as to incapacitate personnel or material, while minimizing fatalities and undesired damage to property and environment.
		Unlike weapons that permanently destroy targets through blast, fragmentation, or presentation, non-lethal weapons have relatively reversible effects on targets and/or are able to discriminate between targets and non-targets in the weapon’s area of impact.
		The users of these weapons will be more inhibited to use excessive force just because they weapons he is using don not kill, thus leaving a situation wide open for someone to get seriously hurt.

	Cabinet Magazine Online - The Acoustics of War
		This was the last reference to non-lethal weapons in the media at large.
		It is cheap to generate and relatively easy to direct, but ultrasound burns surface tissue and destroys organs (medical ultrasound is used to break up kidney stones) and therefore has not been adapted for non-lethal purposes.
		For years, self-proclaimed futurologists such as the husband-wife team Janet and Chris Morris have been prophesying a different kind of ultrasound weapon: acoustic voice plants that can make the target imagine to be hearing voices inside his or her head.

	Unclassified/Commerical Mind Control Technology
		ULTRASOUND AND VOICE-FM Ultrasound is vibration of the air, a liquid, or a solid, above the upper limit of human hearing which is roughly 15,000 Hz in adults.
		While there are a number of technical challenges to be overcome in building devices of these types, less-than-lethal weapons based on physiological responses to energetic stimuli would provide a safe and effective means of dealing with a number of law enforcement situations where use of deadly force is not desirable.
		In other words, weapons that are barred from use against our country's worst enemies (notwithstanding the fact that the US did use this weapon against Iraqi troops!) can now be used against our own citizens by the local police departments against such groups as peaceful protestors of US nuclear policies.
