A listing of U.S. patents for directed energy weapons designed to be used on people (from the website of the UN - Human Rights - Office of the High Commissioner).

The earliest is from 1962, the most current is from 2014, ten years ago, so whatever leaps and bounds in this technology DARPA and DARPA-funded companies have made in the last TEN YEARS - is not accessible to us.

Sonic and ultrasonic weapons have been used for crowd control and crime deterrence.

Wikipedia

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sonic_weapon

More commonly this device and others of similar design have been used to disperse protesters and rioters in crowd control efforts. A similar system is called a "magnetic acoustic device". The Mosquito sonic devices have been used in the United Kingdom to deter teenagers from lingering around shops in target areas. The device works by emitting an ultra-high frequency blast (around 19–20 kHz) that teenagers or people under approximately 20 are susceptible to and find uncomfortable. Age-related hearing loss apparently prevents the ultra-high pitch sound from causing a nuisance to those in their late twenties and above, though this is wholly dependent on a young person's past exposure to high sound pressure levels.[citation needed] In 2020 and 2021, Greek authorities used long-range sound cannons to deter migrants on the Turkish border.

Some police forces have used sound cannons against protesters, for example during the 2009 G20 Pittsburgh summit, the 2014 Ferguson unrest, and the 2016 Dakota Access Pipeline protest in North Dakota, among others.

The extra-aural (unrelated to hearing) bioeffects on various internal organs and the central nervous system included auditory shifts, vibrotactile sensitivity change, muscle contraction, cardiovascular function change, central nervous system effects, vestibular (inner ear) effects, and chest wall/lung tissue effects. Researchers found that low-frequency sonar exposure could result in significant cavitations, hypothermia, and tissue shearing. No follow up experiments were recommended. Tests performed on mice show the threshold for both lung and liver damage occurs at about 184 dB. Damage increases rapidly as intensity is increased.
