Re: DARPA patent application

I'm not an engineer, but it seems to me that any attempt to use this with a living/delicate/explosive/etc. thing would be foolhardy, if the distance is long enough, any wind, poof, you're off course, then the calculations are invalid followed closely by splat. Then again, they may be compensating for that somehow...
