like most technology it won't surprise you that HSS technology is about 10+ years old. I first read about this back in the day I used to dream about the awesome devices that could be made and how you could finally have a 1 speaker sound system with 10 virtual speakers.
I love this tech but I'm always dismayed when they say "Oh by the way" we sold it to the Military and they are buying IT fast as we can make them! and ITs a weapon! Remember the sound Canons use on the INCREDIBLE HULK!
Homosexual activists understand the power of words.
Please visit my channel to watch a one-minute video clip in which popular atheist author Richard Dawkins admits that homosexual activists "hijacked the word 'gay'".
The word "homosexual" is more appropriate and accurate because it, unlike the word "gay", actually describes the behavior/attraction/relationship being discussed.
The word "gay" helps homosexual activists push their agenda.
This would be awesome in Movies Theaters, In a horror flick you can make audience freak out from one side of the room as if the creature is coming from the side. Awesome!!
@Trinivalts you are incorrect, earphones are simply small loud speakers, they are by no means directional. Turn them up and people all around you can hear your music.
@Hajenko That's arguing semantics, the exact same thing can be said about this thing, just turn it at some other people and voila. And earphones aren't meant for listening to them by not having them on as well. If u mean those cheap noncaped ones, then that's a different thing. Capped earphones are directional by being isolative. U could say they're spacial instead of directional, but by being spacial they're also very much directional.
@albinolintel facepalm* So!? If u turn this thing onto the target u get the same result. Earphones may not be as convenient, but they're directional enough. We don't even know what's the sound quality to this is, maybe it's crappy compared to earphones.
Okay, straight off the bat, to the 20 fucking idiots who gave this video a thumbs down, fuckin fuck you fuckers. Go live in the jungle and get unwillingly fornicated by an aggressive rhinoceros.
Point at enemys and blow their eardrums out without taking damage yourself...seems like something this guy may want to look into as he comes off as a smug, greedy ass.
intelligents, you lack, as well as anything greater than minun wage, because for some reason you have no imagination, which will lead you to retirement, along the same path you are on now,, same job + no imagination + no desire to dream of something you can do with your spare time to one day take over your full time job, creating a large amount of money = freedom of your youth again, but this time you don't ask your parents for money , you go to YOUR bank,,,think about something YOU can create.
You could pull a prank on someone by pointing it at them while they're sitting near their friends. They'd comment on the song that they're hearing, but since the friends aren't hearing it, they'd have no idea what their friend is talking about.
Good idea chief... lets monitor our children even less than we already do. maybe we should just start turning them out when they turn 5 and see what happens
Please mind that the invention this guy is boasting about was registered in 1994 in Russia: the number is 94032106/03. Why americans like to steal everything and pretend to be pioneers? I doubt that with their school education level, they can be so inventorous. Shame to such talks
I am amazed how Americans steal everything and then boast as if they discover something and invent... The history of bulb is clear and simple: in 1873 the Russian scientist Ladygin made two bulbs that were lit up in St. Petersburg and then Edison registered the updated version of the bulb in 1879 (can you at least compare the dates?) and began the production. Actually Edison also tricked Tesla and thus should not be praised too much as he was an ungrateful stealer. Sorry.

Apocalyptic Talk Stokes Microchip Implant DebateUpdated: 1 day 2 hours ago
(Feb. 11) -- Forbidding companies from forcing employees to have microchips implanted in their bodies isn't just about protecting personal freedom; it might ward off the biblical "mark of the beast," according to a lawmaker who's pushing for such a ban in Virginia.
The state House overwhelmingly approved Del. Mark Cole's bill Wednesday. Several other states already have similar laws or are considering them.
Point it to your next door neighbor and say : " This is God Talking to You " adding anything you want them to do at your discretion, Call it Mind Control.
"Point it to your next door neighbor and say : " This is God Talking to You " adding anything you want them to do at your discretion, Call it Mind Control. "
This could have devastating effects if used incorrectly.
1. I could have sworn there was a Russian man who came up with about the same idea, way long ago (but the prototype was housed in a tennis racket).
2. The army (especially the Israeli) is already using this for military purposes quite a while now.
3. During a (rock) concert, frequencies below 200 Hz are key, but they are the hardest to focus, hence I don't think there's ever going to be a similar subwoofer (though I'd kill to see that!)
Actually Tesla didn't invent the light bulb. It's true that he and Edison were considered rivals, but in a completely different and far grander arena. Google "War of Currents" to learn more of this subject. Tesla was a far more brillient scientist and inventor that Edison ever was - this caused jealosy and bitterness in our boy Thomas.
It happens to be, however, that Edison wasn't the first person to come up with an idea of a light bulb, he was the first to patent it.
In Madame Tuesauds Rock Circus they have focussed sound. You step onto a wee circle and the song comes down over you, you step out of the circle and you can't hear the song anymore. I think 1 song is a David bowie one.
What a myopic nerd, like the quantum computing scientists. Interesting how the most laughter comes when Woody says how the USA will fake troop movement somewhere against a hill. Do those idiots who laugh realize that it is not humans who will be in control of this technology and the unimaginably glut of future technology of this kind? I am sorry to be "negative" but humanity is in for a rude awakening. Do you know how to spell "horror?" that is what we will experience the way things are going.
The Terminator is incredibly simplistic compared to the horror that is likely to happen. Imagine hearing sounds where there is nothing while robots of all sizes attack you, from inside and outside your body. ... for instance nanotechnology. Woody himself admits that the surface of possible technology has not even been scratched.
I study AI, and I'll tell ya, the doomsday stories about robots taking over the earth are all highly unlikely. If you want to talk end of days, it's far more likely that we accidentally release a killer virus, or that some religious extremist tries to bring about armageddon, or that we accidentally trigger a mass extinction that destabilizes a part of the ecosystem that we depend on. The only way to ward that off is understanding.
Remarkable people? Bill Clinton?! Remarkable dirt-bag is more like it. Might as well throw Bush Junior AND Senior up there, Al Gore, Obama etc. It'll be a dirt-bag convention.
i was speaking in military terms, and it has nothing to do with religion. i'm an atheist anyway, and it doesn't matter what they say on the speakers, but the biblical thing would be funny to do. it would determine who's an ally by seeing if there is a temperature shift when they hear it. i can't believe i just had to explain that whole thing to you, hopefully you go the message.
I understand your intentions and i agree that it would be funny but again you are assuming that an ally would be Christian and an enemy wouldnt. biblical is a direct reference to Christianity. so lets just say it can be used by any faith to identify people of a different faith regardless of the reason they have in mind. sorry for over analyzing.
let's just leave it as "it would be a funny thing to do, regardless of politcal correctness (or lack thereof)". most of the american troops are christian and most of the "enemy" is not and that's not just assumption. if you're going to whisper into there ears from miles away you might as well have fun doing it, even if they don't understand. the point is for them to hear voices of americans and see how they respond, having fun while doing it will only lessen the stress on our troops anyway.
Great invention for cinemas, home theaters and other things..not sure about having annoying adverts in the supermarket, it is already annoying with all those products that you don't want and need....
if some poor sod did not know that this existed then i wonder how they would feel when they were constantly bombarded by human voice not around them but using doppler inside there head. or the original microwave technology using clicks to produce a monotone robotic sounding voice they would be going mad yes/no......
i love buying random shit off the tv so i can listen to tv while my "spouse sleeps comfortably!" at 5 million payments of 19.95 so it can break 2 seconds after I open the box, especially since I have so much to spend on that bs. what a waste.
Meh, it'll be better. You can chose if you want to hear it or not. You can be AD free for the rest of your life if this invention got out on the market.
The point is I shouldn't have to choose something like that every time I go outside, and it shouldn't be forced on me.
Television and radio is different, this is talking public annoyance/harassment and there will no doubt be privacy issues as well. What about medical conditions? Do these waves interfere with hearing aids, pacemakers etc? Do they even care if it does or not?
I certainly would not shop at a place that employs these invasive techniques.
You wouldn't hm, if this gets the interest of everyone, it'll cost about nothing, and it'll be almost free. People want to make money, so they'll put 10's of those things in their shops, to get money from the AD people.
If they do, all the shops will have them, and then you would have to choose if you're gonna stay on the red line, og beside it- ad free or not. =D
Hearing aids, and pacemakers. I doubt that 100%.
Look at a pic of Tokyo, or NY etc, Ads will fuck you up no matter if you run =D
Dude we could have the ultimate psycological advantage. Imagine if we pointed this at some insurgents and said like "Quit now, allah will destroy you for what you have done" in arabic. They would reconsider their shit so bad.
first research their culture, then u will now why it wont be as easy as this, + i doubt they will be that dumb, and if they were, wouldnt you think they wouldnt do such a thing and there will be no war anymore? if anyone has a psychological advantage is them, and us army is the one that should (and they recently did) "reconsider their shit".
Dude, all "terrorists" believe in an extremely radical version of the islamic faith. They are brainwashed. Thus if they heard "allah" speaking to them directly telling them what they're doing is wrong, they would believe it. It would drive them insane.
duuude... again research their culture, like i told you before if it was that easy wouldn't you think there will be no more war? oooh wait, patent it and sell it to the military..lol
Not all terrorists believe in islam. Most of the "terrorists" have had their families killed by some angry americans, then they want to kill them, since they've got nothing to lose.
What do people do then? Yeah, kill more people, and get this going on forever. They've started a cluster of events that won't stop, untill the whole white race, or the sand people race is gone ;)
Me, on the other hand would do my best to kill as many as possible till I died myself. ^^ But that's mostly because of our culture. If we get fucked with, we fuck them up. It's in our blood, from the viking age. It's called: "blods hevn" or in english: "Blood revenge". It happens all the time here, even now. ^^
It really doesn't matter which religion they have. The worst terrorists are religious people.
Can't say that they all are followers of islam, not in the radical way. Just think for yourself- what if your most loved one was killed because of a leader in your country has a different culture than the leader in another country- then the one that got insultet kills your loved ones just and calls it: "OH, we mis bombed, shhhh". Would you just think: "o, that sucks" then do nothing? :p
they are very predictable.... they will kill the "infidels" and they are willing to die doing it... they have nothing to loose, and they aren't afraid of ANYTHING.... they dont have fear... that is the main psychological advantage they have.... 1st what you trying to do when you fight somebody, is to intimidate them, how can you intimidate someone who has no fear, and absolutely no fear, and they arent afraid of death. for the same reason it was very difficult to defeat Russians and Japan before
This guy doesn't seem to be about anything but money. Yeah, great thing he has a mind to create things. But what's that worth, if he can't control things?
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
It's nothing new , and you anti military people you are jokes, if the US military doesn't have it, someone will kill you with it........not me but YOU
yeah, the less amazing technology that goes to the militaries of the world the better off we the people are. thats technology that they have and we dont (the high powered ones). and im never comfortable with that. dont ever think it cant be used against you. the government also has basically a weapon that scrambles electromagnetic signals, for example your brainwaves and...THOUGHTS, and can aim subliminal messages directly into your subconscious. not to be paranoid but thats not good.
like most technology it won't surprise you that HSS technology is about 10+ years old. I first read about this back in the day I used to dream about the awesome devices that could be made and how you could finally have a 1 speaker sound system with 10 virtual speakers.

sounds like someone just saw terminator
teioh123 2 years ago
The Terminator is incredibly simplistic compared to the horror that is likely to happen. Imagine hearing sounds where there is nothing while robots of all sizes attack you, from inside and outside your body. ... for instance nanotechnology. Woody himself admits that the surface of possible technology has not even been scratched.

That's scary! Will the robots come installed with an "off" switch?
mikeroephonics 2 years ago 2
I study AI, and I'll tell ya, the doomsday stories about robots taking over the earth are all highly unlikely. If you want to talk end of days, it's far more likely that we accidentally release a killer virus, or that some religious extremist tries to bring about armageddon, or that we accidentally trigger a mass extinction that destabilizes a part of the ecosystem that we depend on. The only way to ward that off is understanding.

There is a line that has to be drawn here of course (I think the Biblical thing was too far).
But the turret is just.. SO SICK!!! Brilliantly simple, man...
CPeyser08 2 years ago
why is the biblical thing too far? it would determine (or at least help determine) if they're allies or not.

i was speaking in military terms, and it has nothing to do with religion. i'm an atheist anyway, and it doesn't matter what they say on the speakers, but the biblical thing would be funny to do. it would determine who's an ally by seeing if there is a temperature shift when they hear it. i can't believe i just had to explain that whole thing to you, hopefully you go the message.
NorseRonin 2 years ago
I understand your intentions and i agree that it would be funny but again you are assuming that an ally would be Christian and an enemy wouldnt. biblical is a direct reference to Christianity. so lets just say it can be used by any faith to identify people of a different faith regardless of the reason they have in mind. sorry for over analyzing.
haas80 2 years ago
let's just leave it as "it would be a funny thing to do, regardless of politcal correctness (or lack thereof)". most of the american troops are christian and most of the "enemy" is not and that's not just assumption. if you're going to whisper into there ears from miles away you might as well have fun doing it, even if they don't understand. the point is for them to hear voices of americans and see how they respond, having fun while doing it will only lessen the stress on our troops anyway.

Um... well honestly, haha, my interpretation at the time was kind of stupid.
I think it would be very beneficial to have the technology for the reason you pointed out.

Meh, it'll be better. You can chose if you want to hear it or not. You can be AD free for the rest of your life if this invention got out on the market.
Focaloren 2 years ago
The point is I shouldn't have to choose something like that every time I go outside, and it shouldn't be forced on me.
Television and radio is different, this is talking public annoyance/harassment and there will no doubt be privacy issues as well. What about medical conditions? Do these waves interfere with hearing aids, pacemakers etc? Do they even care if it does or not?
I certainly would not shop at a place that employs these invasive techniques.
jewto0b 2 years ago
You wouldn't hm, if this gets the interest of everyone, it'll cost about nothing, and it'll be almost free. People want to make money, so they'll put 10's of those things in their shops, to get money from the AD people.
If they do, all the shops will have them, and then you would have to choose if you're gonna stay on the red line, og beside it- ad free or not. =D
Hearing aids, and pacemakers. I doubt that 100%.

Dude we could have the ultimate psycological advantage. Imagine if we pointed this at some insurgents and said like "Quit now, allah will destroy you for what you have done" in arabic. They would reconsider their shit so bad.
therobanata 2 years ago
first research their culture, then u will now why it wont be as easy as this, + i doubt they will be that dumb, and if they were, wouldnt you think they wouldnt do such a thing and there will be no war anymore? if anyone has a psychological advantage is them, and us army is the one that should (and they recently did) "reconsider their shit".
LaZyLuke 2 years ago
Dude, all "terrorists" believe in an extremely radical version of the islamic faith. They are brainwashed. Thus if they heard "allah" speaking to them directly telling them what they're doing is wrong, they would believe it. It would drive them insane.
therobanata 2 years ago
duuude... again research their culture, like i told you before if it was that easy wouldn't you think there will be no more war? oooh wait, patent it and sell it to the military..lol

Not all terrorists believe in islam. Most of the "terrorists" have had their families killed by some angry americans, then they want to kill them, since they've got nothing to lose.
What do people do then? Yeah, kill more people, and get this going on forever. They've started a cluster of events that won't stop, untill the whole white race, or the sand people race is gone ;)

Me, on the other hand would do my best to kill as many as possible till I died myself. ^^ But that's mostly because of our culture. If we get fucked with, we fuck them up. It's in our blood, from the viking age. It's called: "blods hevn" or in english: "Blood revenge". It happens all the time here, even now. ^^

Batchad28 2 years ago
It really doesn't matter which religion they have. The worst terrorists are religious people.
Can't say that they all are followers of islam, not in the radical way. Just think for yourself- what if your most loved one was killed because of a leader in your country has a different culture than the leader in another country- then the one that got insultet kills your loved ones just and calls it: "OH, we mis bombed, shhhh". Would you just think: "o, that sucks" then do nothing? :p

The only psychological advantage the insurgents have is unpredictability.
therobanata 2 years ago
they are very predictable.... they will kill the "infidels" and they are willing to die doing it... they have nothing to loose, and they aren't afraid of ANYTHING.... they dont have fear... that is the main psychological advantage they have.... 1st what you trying to do when you fight somebody, is to intimidate them, how can you intimidate someone who has no fear, and absolutely no fear, and they arent afraid of death. for the same reason it was very difficult to defeat Russians and Japan before

yeah, the less amazing technology that goes to the militaries of the world the better off we the people are. thats technology that they have and we dont (the high powered ones). and im never comfortable with that. dont ever think it cant be used against you. the government also has basically a weapon that scrambles electromagnetic signals, for example your brainwaves and...THOUGHTS, and can aim subliminal messages directly into your subconscious. not to be paranoid but thats not good.
