A science subscription box sounds straightforward until you start looking at what is actually being delivered. Some boxes are primarily children's activity kits. Others are collections of inexpensive novelty products. Curiosity Box takes a different route. The service is built…
Older cameras are more susceptible to damage from laser pointers, and you'd have to have an illegal-strength laser to do permanent damage to a security camera. Why you should never point a laser pointer at a security camera The amount…
By the Navy’s own figure, each shot cost less than a dollar. In the fall of 2014, the Laser Weapon System, known as LaWS, operated aboard USS Ponce (AFSB[I] 15) in the Persian Gulf. During that time it hit targets mounted…
Hungary has demonstrated a domestically developed laser weapon designed to destroy drones and plans to bring it into service within a year. The development was reported by Honvédelem, the official website of Hungary’s Ministry of Defence. The system was demonstrated…
The US Army is moving to field a new drone-killing laser — and one company is already showing how it could be powered in the field. AeroVironment won a $464.8 million Army contract in September for its LOCUST X3 laser, and the company…
