Exploring patents, claims, and questions surrounding Directed Energy Weapon technology and its potential applications.
In the age of instant information, few things stir as much curiosity – and controversy – as government patents related to mind and behaviour manipulation. While many people assume such concepts belong solely to science fiction, a number of official U.S. patents describe methods that could, in theory, influence the human nervous system, emotional state, or perception.
What the Patents Say
A sampling of publicly accessible U.S. patents reveals a range of inventions tied to electromagnetic influence:
- US Patent 6,470,214 (2002) – Method and device for producing a desired brain state via magnetic waves.
Describes applying specific electromagnetic frequencies to affect neural activity and guide the brain into certain states. - US Patent (Year 2000) – Pulsative manipulation of the central nervous system.
Outlines the concept of using pulsed electromagnetic fields to alter neural function. - US Patent (2013) – Control of brain state by engineered EMF patterns in building wiring.
Suggests embedding frequency patterns into AC wiring as a way to affect brain activity within a given space. - US Patent (2014) – Inducing a desired brain state via audio files.
Proposes embedding special waveforms into music or sound to influence mood or mental focus. - US Patent (2000) – Induced emotional states through EMF exposure.
Includes possibilities such as creating alertness, drowsiness, or even heightened sexual arousal. - US Patent (2015) – Monitoring vital signs remotely via radar waves.
Describes the use of handheld or remote devices to gather physiological data without direct contact. - US Patent (2002) – Voice-to-skull communication.
Details the remote transmission of intelligible sound directly into a person’s perception, without external speakers.
The military and defence contractors have researched these topics
- The U.S. military, DARPA, and Air Force have historically explored non-lethal weapons, crowd control devices, and psychological operations tools.
- For example:
- The “Active Denial System” uses millimeter-wave beams to create an intense heating sensation on skin.
- The microwave auditory effect was studied for communication in noisy environments.
- While some of these sound alarming, the public record shows very limited, controlled testing – though it’s true the research exists.
The Official Assignees
Several of these patents are assigned to branches of the U.S. military, particularly the United States Air Force, while others are credited to private inventors or research entities. Their presence in public records means these ideas have been formally proposed, even if not all have been built or deployed.
Technology vs. Application
It’s important to note that the existence of a patent does not prove that the technology is operational, widespread, or used for harmful purposes. Patents are often filed to secure intellectual property for concepts that may remain theoretical or experimental.
Why This Raises Questions
For those aware of these patents, the implications can be unsettling. If the technology works as described, it could offer powerful tools for medicine, education, or mental health – but also potential means for covert influence or control.
The patents themselves do not specify intent; they outline only the mechanics of what could be possible.
Infrared Light, Optogenetics, and Everyday Devices
Another area of public concern involves the intersection of optogenetics – a biological technique that uses light to control the activity of neurons and other cell types – and the infrared technology embedded in everyday electronics. Optogenetics, in its original form, is a research tool used in neuroscience to better understand brain function and, in some cases, to restore lost sensory abilities. It works by introducing light-sensitive proteins into specific cells, allowing scientists to influence their behaviour with targeted light wavelengths.
In parallel, modern smartphones and certain wearable devices emit short, repeated bursts of infrared light toward the user’s face. This feature is officially described as a method for facial recognition, attention tracking (to dim the screen when not in use), and proximity sensing to save battery life. However, night vision footage has revealed that these pulses occur continuously during use, even outside of unlocking or scanning functions.
While mainstream explanations frame this as a harmless part of user-interface optimization, some researchers and privacy advocates question whether persistent, invisible light exposure – especially in wavelengths relevant to optogenetic methods – could have unintended biological impacts. There is currently no verified evidence connecting consumer infrared emissions to optogenetic manipulation, but the conceptual overlap has drawn interest from those monitoring the convergence of biomedical research and directed energy technologies.
