Long Range Acoustic Device

The Long-Range Acoustic Device is an acoustic hailing device, sound cannon and sonic weapon developed by Genasys. Law enforcement organizations and the manufacturer claim that LRAD systems are primarily designed for long-range communications; however, the device has an extremely high decibel capacity and is controversially used as a less-lethal weapon for crowd control. The Academy of Doctors of Audiology states that \'Individuals exposed to weaponized LRAD use at the 2009 G20 Summit experienced mild traumatic brain injuries, permanent hearing loss, tinnitus, eardrum perforation, ear pain, dizziness, and disorientation.\'
