New Military Gadget Sees Through Walls
U.S. soldiers and Marines will be issued as early as this spring a new gadget called a RADAR SCOPE that will enable them to see motion through up to 12 inches of concrete, detecting movement as minute as someone breathing in the next room. The DARPA-developed device weighs only a pound and a half, is waterproof, runs on AA batteries and costs taxpayers only about $1,000 each. I want one!
Comments:
I heard about this on the news about four years ago. Maybe that was when they were developing it.
Very cool, this to me seems like the real life version of the similar gadget in the video game "Stolen" where the main character Anya uses "Sonic Vision" glasses that use software to triangulate the position of any sound-emitting object. The glasses then produce a realtime video image display of activity on the other side of the wall.
It looks like this DARPA Radar Scope utilizes an analog meter to simply alert you of the amount of activity.
wow- i bet this could find the studs in the wall so i can hang that tv...
>wow- i bet this could find the studs in the wall so i can hang that tv...
Yeah forget the stud finders designed to do that job, lest spen 1000$ on something that wouldn't work (cause incase you didn't know wall-studs don't move around that much...)

Yeah, forget having a sense of humor too. Cause then you would be able to understand when something is a joke.
Don't be a sarci cunt
if these things could stop bullets, they would rule.
maybe they protect your eyes a bit though.
Yay! Another toy to help the US military kill people without having positive target identification. :P
these things would rule if they stopped bullets and shrapnel from hitting your eyes, just like in that one game.
HIDE AND SEEK FOR THE CHILDREN will never be the same.
Seems just like the AP sensor from MGS.
Sure makes being a peeping tom a whole lot easier.
"don't be a sarci cunt"
don't be an uptight butthole.
stud finder didn't make sense but I think anyone that read it understood the joke about it. Even though your dingy moves doubt this would find it through a quarter inch of fabric, ya vag.
SEALs have been using this tech for a year or so. Then again they get all the goodies first
The amount of radiation beyond XRay needed for something like this could cause allot of harm probably. I really wish the military would issue a warning label even if it is not public use.
Dont be so trusting of the unknown.
last time I heard about something like this it was still under development cuz it was making the people it was used on vehemently sick
I wonder what the effects of such a "gadget" are on the occupants on the other side of those walls. I wonder what it would do, say, to a baby in a crib? What's the technology behind such a weapon?
Maybe that's not part of the military objective though...
Rainbow Six: Heartbeat sensor, anyone?
Rainbow 6 hbs was exactly waht i was thinking
Where was this tool when Gannon/Guckert was "doing"
the White House rounds?
Could we get it in 'smell-o-rama'?
You won't be able to use this to find wall studs or other objects, unless they're walking around in there. It needs motion (even as little as the beating of a human heart) to sense.
Actually, this thing would be better with a little 360 degree display, and a range reading for the movement.
It could make a warbling noise that increases in volume and frequency as the motion increases in magnitude or proximity.
"Something's moving and it ain't us!"
DARPA rules... It's not even an agency and the get tax funding.
It was first used in Aliens.

you dum-dum...DARPA stands for "Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency"
where can you get one of these I want one!!! when night vision came out $1000 would of been a steal of a deal, this is awsome. imagine taking this out deer hunting, now the thick brush doesn't matter anymore you can hide back where the deer go to hide but no longer will they be hidden heeheh. I think this could become a very popular toy from the hunters of deer to the milf hunters
Can I please use that In BF2?
Wow. This is a scary scary thing. Some pervert could easily be a peeping tom with that device. Oh...and I am sure it will NEVER happen cause the US is ALWAYS good (Sarcasm)
By the way guys .. Stud finders already exist and they are pretty cheap aswell. No need for a 1000$ heart beat sensor.
I had a physic's professor last quarter in school that was part of this project. Amazing to see it alive and well.
cool real life is catching up wiv the movies
dont ya just wish u could have one they look cool
Won't be so great as soon as the bad guys develop explosives that are detonated by milli-meter wave radar energy. As soon as you put it up to the wall, blam.
l@@ks awsome bit of kit,will it only be available to military,or will it be available,to joe bloggs ?
