EMP Gun
EMP GUN - Shoot'em As They Drive By! | |
Tired of all those vehicles driving by playing their (Music ?) so loud that it wakes you up, disturbs your TV viewing and Music listening time, rattleing your walls floors and windows? Well how about a sound activated EMP Gun, (electromagnetic pulse gun). As the vehicle approaches a decible meter senses
the Db level coming from the vehicle, when it reaches a preset level, say 100 Decibels, the EMP GUN locks on the sound and fires an "Electro Magnetic Pulse" at the vehicle. This will disrupt all electronics in the vehicle. The sound ceases immediately, the vehicle ceases to run and the EMP Gun then calls for a tow truck. And You can go on doing whatever you were doing without being disturbed.

Trouble is, every device behind the vehicle will also be smoked. [Ling, Jun 25 2006]
A patent for an EMP beam generator, based on microwaves

Good for cars, since the microwaves can get into smaller gaps. [Ling, Jun 25 2006]

Welcome to the HB, [gg]. I am sorry
your inaugural is the old EMP gun
concept. It has been done here before,
a few times (see link). |
|
| |
Welcome. It's good to see variations on the classics. But I'd at least want the pleasure of triggering the EMP gun myself, while cackling horribly. |
|
| |
By the way, how do you build an EMP gun? |
|
| |
the emp weaponry that the military has
looked into consists of a a number of
coils of a rather thick conductor
wrapped around a metal shell
containing high explosive. when the
explosive is set off, the conductor is
heated up, which creates a magnetic
field, that is high enough to induce
current in electronic chips, which fries
the circuitry. |
|
| |
these are one shot devices that have the
side effect of an explosion that means
you wouldn't want to be near it when it
goes off. |
|
| |
these devices don't discriminate
between the electronics of the car in
front of you, the car behind you, or your
car. if you want to be able to use this
thing, you'll need to shield your cars
electronics, and if you want a reusable
emp generator, you need a power
source other than an explosive, and
some electronic components to create a
variable magnetic field and those
components need to be shielded as
well. |
|
| |
it's tough to find info on magnetic
shielding for electronic components
online, (lots of proprietary stuff), but
from what i can tell, it involves
suspending the components in a
faraday cage that redirects lines of flux
around the component instead of
through it. |
|
| |
this means that you need to a bunch of
metal shielding to your car, a battery
power source, a capacitor bank to pulse
high amounts of power quickly, and
probably some sort of mount for the
cannon itself, that keeps it from
affecting the cars behind or to the sides
of you. |
|
| |
at this point your car won't be terribly
useful as a vehicle for anything other
than getting into situations of
roadrage,or becoming a vigilante high
powered car stereo disrupter. |
|
| |
it would be fun though. just not ethical
or practical. just wanted to let you know
what the actual requirements for this to
work. |
