Low frequency speaker system can disrupt breathing.
A new patent from Raytheon outlines a new non-lethal system for controlling protestors and rioting crowds.
An acoustic horn is built into a physical shield, and can be directed at individuals, with a pressure wave that disrupts the respiratory tract and hinders breathing. A row of shields can also be used to disrupt an entire group of people.
From the patent:

A folded acoustic horn is incorporated into the physical shell of the shield. The horn couples acoustic pulses from a sonic pulse generator to an acoustic aperture to output a pulsed pressure beam that approximates a plane wave to produce a pressure barrier.

    But it’s a non-lethal breath disruptor, and it’s from Raytheon, the people who brought us the safety guillotine.
