  • Patent number: 9702100
    Abstract: A non-lethal vehicle device provides for the selective, remotely-deployed controlled stop of a targeted vehicle regardless of wheel or undercarriage configuration. The device includes a combination of a remote arm/safe mechanism, a remote deployment controller, spike/membrane deployment mechanism(s), a “speed bump” type housing that can protrude (be driven over until deployed) or be submerged, and one or more membranes with a plurality of spikes. A combination of sensors may provide independent deployment once armed.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: December 8, 2014
    Date of Patent: July 11, 2017
    Assignee: Pacific Scientific Energetic Materials Company
    Inventors: Mynor J. Castro, Robert A. McCoy, William G. Seeglitz, Edwin A. Spomer
