Your Democrats and ACLU will probably demand that need warrants approved by a judge before they can be used.

[rightwingintelligentsia]

That's what we need to win the WOT--more cool high-tech toys (and fewer Democrats).

[Revolting cat!]

The question is: will it sense through bikinis?

[conservativecorner]

The rats truly can't hide now, and ya just know more proactive protection is on the way. The enemy ain't seen nothin' yet, as we say in the South.

[InvisibleChurch]

a window? already been done

[Wormwood]

Coming soon to the FBI and your local police department.

Homeland security and all that. Please stay in view, citizen.

Should help out with the concussion grenade budget....

[HuntsvilleTxVeteran]

It sounds great!

[Sarajevo]

It will give (troops) a lot of opportunity to stake out buildings (i.e. the female shower tent)and really see inside"

The troops are going to have some fun with those. Now, for $1000 apiece, where can I get one...........

[LachlanMinnesota]

This is old news...my wife knows what I'm doing no matter how thick my walls are, and no matter what they are made out of...if I knew it was important to Darpa, I would have hooked her up...

[BenLurkin]

Keep the Clintoons away from it or the Red Chinese will be fielding one of their own before very long.

[festus]

will give warfighters searching a building the ability to tell within seconds if someone is in the next room,

This also works almost as well. You won't know if someone is in the next room but it won't matter if they were anyway.

[Richard-SIA]

But who gets it first, our troops overseas, or the local cops looking to see what you may own?

This will be the death of the Fourth Amendment and any pretense of personal privacy.

No SARC tag, I mean it.

[Centurion2000]

And some police force will start using these things soon as well. I wonder what the shielding is for something like this?

[PeaceBeWithYou]

There is a large difference between sensing something/someone thru a wall and seeing them.

This technology has been around about 5 years. Google micropulse radar.

By simply holding the portable, handheld device up to a wall, users will be able to detect movements as small as breathing, he said.

The Radar Scope, developed by DARPA, is expected to be fielded to troops in Iraq as soon as this spring, Baranoski said. The device is likely to be fielded to the squad level, for use by troops going door to door in search of terrorists.

The Radar Scope will give warfighters the capability to sense through a foot of concrete and 50 feet beyond that into a room, Baranoski explained.

Cool!
