The other day I was discussing with an acquaintance the challenges of defeating a suicide terrorist bomber who had a hand trigger device, and when he released the trigger it automatically went off. Therefore if anything happened to him his hand would release automatically setting off the detonation. There are other tricky triggers like that one with a mercury switch where if a person falls on the ground, the bomb would also go off.
With the common and easier to make device; the hand trigger with a spring on it, the individual could be shot in the head for instance, and there would be no brain signals to the muscles in the hand to release, therefore it can't detonate when the terrorist is eliminated in this way. However with the mercury switch, the individual still would fall to the floor after being shot and the bomb would go off anyway. Therefore in our discussion we were trying to figure out what technologies we need to design in the future to combat this.
I told my acquaintance, Troy Laclaire, that I'd have to consider this. And I said wouldn't it be nice if we had a tractor-beam which picked up the suspect and suspended him in the air, hitting him with a frequency device like a virtual stun gun. Then wheel in a bomb trashcan or bomb containment device underneath him, and then simply turning it off. The suspect would fall into the trashcan or bomb containment device and blow up. And you just wheel out the trash.
Those technologies will not be available for a while, but it would make a nice science fiction film. However, perhaps there is another way to do this. We need a molecular bomb diffuser frequency beam, one which could scramble the ionic-chemical-bonding between the molecules which make up the explosive chemicals. Therefore separating them and preventing them from recombining while the beam was focused on the suicide bomber.
At the same time you would hit the individual's brain or head with a stun gun beam, preventing him from acting or setting off and detonating the device. Next, you would collect the suspect while keeping the beam on him, and then throwing him in the bomb containment device. Then he could explode the device any time he wanted to, and that wouldn't hurt anyone.
Of course you wouldn't have the suspect to interrogate because by then he'd be in 1 million pieces. But you would've saved lives. Indeed I hope you will please consider all this and think on it. If you have any other interesting ideas or concepts to make something like this work please shoot me an e-mail. Maybe this is a good future technology challenge for our security defenses.
