===Ultraviolet laser=== HSV Technologies, Inc. (named for its founders, Herr, Schlesinger and Vernon; not to be confused with Holden Special Vehicles), formerly of [[San Diego, California]], USA, then Port Orchard, WA, designed a non-lethal device which was profiled in the 2002 ''[[Time (magazine)|TIME]]'' magazine article "Beyond the Rubber Bullet". It is an [[electrolaser]] using [[ultraviolet]] [[laser]] beams of 193 nm, and promises to immobilize living targets at a distance without contact. There is plan for an engine-disabling variation for use against the electronic ignitions of cars using a 248 nm laser. The lead inventor, Eric Herr, died in 2008 and the company appears to have been dissolved, with their website defunct as of September 2017.<ref name="hsvti.com">{{cite web|url=http://www.hsvti.com|title=lasik|access-date=2019-07-08|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20180418130104/http://www.hsvti.com/|archive-date=2018-04-18|url-status=dead}}</ref>
