Personal Through-Wall Radar

Post by **JavaMoose** » 2006-01-05 22:47

It may not sound realistic, but now it is!

The new "Radar Scope" will give warfighters searching a building the ability to tell within seconds if someone is in the next room, Edward Baranoski from the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency's Special Projects Office, told the American Forces Press Service.

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

So, how can we get this into the game?

I think it would be a usless thing to have ingame. In real life when you are wondering to search that house or not for terriosts or whatever then it would come in handy. But not in BF2/PRMM/PR

No it would deffinitely be useful but it would kill the fun of being a nation that doesn't have these things.

Nice find though.

Yeah, I was being sorta goofy about actually using it in-game.

It is a pretty neat little product though, eh? Now, if you could stick it - say at the bottom of a ladder - and have it be a motion activated personal alarm...

or hook it up to a clay more or one of those 36 barrel guns that was shown in shouts.

So if there is a bunch of paper blowing around in a room it will pick it up? Wouldn't that waste the soldiers time worrying about all this movement in a room when the 'bad guys' are coming up behind them?

I think it is used in more of a "Before we kick this door down..." get and idea of if anything is moving around in the room they were already planning to go into. Not as a "should we go into this room" use.

At least, that was my take on it. I generally assume the US military knows what it is doing though...
