Eye Asteroids requires no hands

Enter SWATS (Shoulder-Worn Acoustic Targeting System) a $2,000 device that’s about [...]

We talked about a Navy Railgun that can shoot projectiles at Mach 7, and the Navy has another use for a railgun: launching a fighter plane. Navy’s Electromagnetic Aircraft Launch System (EMALS) is finding a way to improve shooting a jet fighter from a carrier that could replace the steam catapult which has been used [...]
