a lot of moonshot movie weapons don't get mentioned too often, mostly because they suck (and were incredibly expensive to develop). there was another one in the 80s that could beam images to your brain or something, it's on youtube as a cnn report: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lgJ6SpHZir8

of course youtube has a whole sub-culture of people who are 'targeted individuals' and post from inside their makeshift faraday cages as their are bombarded by beams from their CIA agent neighbours, torturing them remotely.

it's probably just interference of some kind.
