Metal Storm Limited is a research and development company that specialises in electronically initiated stacked projectile weapons technology. Metal Storm is both the name of the company and the technology.
The company is based in Brisbane, Australia with a subsidiary in Washington DC, U.S.A. Metal Storm owns the proprietary rights to the electronic ballistics technology invented and developed by J. Mike O’Dwyer.
The company was founded in 1994, listed on the Australian Stock Exchange in 1999 and on the Nasdaq in 2001. The company has over 30 worldwide patents covering aspects of ballistics technology.
The share price has fluctuated between a high of AU$2.65 in 2000 and AU$0.11 in 2005, and the company has never paid a dividend. A range of financing arrangements made during 2006 have ensured that operating funds will be available through to at least 2007.
There are currently no commercially available or mass-produced weapons based on the Metal Storm technology.
In May 2004 Metal Storm conducted a live-firing demonstration to key defence personnel in the US, including the US Army Research Development Engineering Command (ARDEC), Telecordia - an associate company of Science Applications International Corporation (SAIC), and General Dynamics Corporation
Here we have a video of this wonderful man who has been set up, implanted with these robotic arms. The arms work from the nerve endings impulses sent right from his brain. Acting in this way is very similar if not identical in process to the average healthy and physically functional human. Take a look!
This radio frequency controlled model, or toy, airplane can gather speeds of up to 200 miles per hour (mph) while still being controlled using a radio frequency based remote device. Watch this amazing video of these fighter jet model airplanes take off, twirl and gain amazing speed on film.
