This is a CS-gas grenade that incorporates a timer, a very
compact
loudspeaker, and a motion detector (obviously, it's going to be
maybe twice the size of a standard canister, but I'm sure we can
find ways around that).
Upon deployment, the grenade announces something like "you
have
fifteen
seconds to disperse... Do not touch me or I will explode...
You have fourteen seconds to disperse..." etc. When it reaches
zero, if the motion detector senses no movement within, say, 40
yards, the fuse is not activated and the grenade goes into 'safe
mode', meaning both that the neighborhood is not saturated with
CS gas and that the hardware can be recovered for later use.

Too many guests at your house tonight? |
|
|
Hardly, just thinking of the troubles our friends across the
pond are having right now. |
|
|
Pff, like I ever have guests. |
|
|
A big crowd needs lots of these. Give
each a different voice? |
|
|
Yes! Accents. Perhaps right-leaning celebrities can be persuaded to add their dulcet ts to this product. Similarly, you could have a talking truncheon that emits either a cockney "Wallop!" or an RP "Terribly sorry about this old chap", depending on how the burly bobby wielding is feeling. |

What do you do if someone teaches the bomb phenomenology ? |
|
|
Install them just above shopkeeper's security doors and
windows. As soon as a rioter gives the door or window a
swift kick 2 or 3 of these babies drop down. I'd name them
"Yob-droppers". |

That is a very good idea, and Alterorder Incorporated is
prepared to offer you half of Vancouver Island in exchange
for exclusive intellectual property rights. Not just for that
one, either. All your ideas are belong to us. |

The surface half right? Actually I'd settle for 50 sq. Kms
around Bowser and maybe throw in Mt Washington for the
skiing. |
|
|
Sold. It doesn't actually belong to us, anyway. |
