Active Denial System

The Air Force Research Laboratory Directed Energy Directorate Active Denial System is a counter-personnel, non-lethal, directed energy weapon. Traveling at the speed of light, the energy strikes the subject and only reaches a skin depth of about 1/64th of an inch. It produces a heat sensation that within seconds becomes intolerable and forces the targeted individual to instinctively move. U.S. Air Force photo.
