PHaSR? Really?

This, too, was a laser weapon for dazzling, but it seems to have quickly turned into a dead end. It's the Personnel Halting and Stimulation Response (PHaSR) system -- yes, besides having the look of a prop for a TV sci-fi show, it even belabored a "Star Trek" reference. According to an Air Force Research Laboratory fact sheet from 2006, it used two low-power diode-pumped lasers, one with a visible wavelength and one with a mid-infrared wavelength. The prototype hasn't been heard from since.
