    Name of Aug/Tech: Sound Operated Anti-Personell System (SOAP)




    Description: A device either affixed to the palm(s) of the user via straps or affixed to a pistol in replacement of the barrel.




    History of Aug/Tech: This 'weapon' was designed in the name of self-defense, and can appear across multiple platforms of DIGI-Tech equipment.




    How does it work?: It focuses a cone of vocal sound from the user into a 'weapon', much like a bat or dolphin's sonar.




    The maximum / minimum volume varies based on the integration with the user, and is tailored to not cause any lasting harm IE burst ear drums, simply a concussive, sudden loud burst of noise to disorient or frighten a would-be attacker.




    Cone Radius: Approx 60* from the sound emitter, travels approximately 13.5 - 15 feet, emitting a base decibel of 90 if the user "yells", but can go to a maximum of 140 if the user "screams". Anything outside of the cone is only afflicted by half of the decibel count if within 10 feet of the cone and a fourth of the effect within 20 feet. Sound will get muffled / stopped by usual preventatives (IE soundproof walls/armor) but the shockwave will not and can still lead to disorientation.




    Most effective distance: < 6 feet




    Least effective distance: > 11 feet.




    Integration within the vocal chords themselves increases decibels by 35 but requires surgery. 90/140 -> 125/175




    Intended use: Self-Defense.




    Strengths:




    Anything sensitive to sound is going to be disoriented if within the cone of effect.




    Very Lightweight and travel size




    Requires very little energy to operate




    Nonlethal takedown.




    Weaknesses:




    An EMP would fry the systems.




    The level of integration with the body determines maximum strength.




    Less effective outside of the cone and overall less effective on inorganics unless they have sensitive hearing somehow.




    How do you believe this will assist in benefiting roleplay?: It's a non-lethal self defense weapon that can work with or without body implants against a variety of targets.




    Attainability: [Open] [size=-2](Previously: Semi-Open - anyone wishing to get one can contact me.)[/size]
