Patent number: 7658151Abstract: The present invention provides a non-lethal projectile for delivering an electric pulse to a target. In one aspect of the invention, the projectile utilizes a piezoelectric device and an electrical oscillating circuit in order to generate a pulse. In another aspect of the invention, the projectile utilizes a piezoelectric device and a mechanical oscillating circuit in order to generate an electric pulse. Since the projectile of the present invention contains the structure to generate the required electric pulse, it can be employed effectively at distances of up to 150 meters.Type: GrantFiled: February 9, 2009Date of Patent: February 9, 2010Assignee: Drexel UniversityInventors: Vladimir Genis, Alexandre Soukhomlinoff, Irina Khomchenko
