Apparently IBM has filed a patent for a technology that works with human reflexes to allow people to dodge bullets.
The present invention relates generally to the protection of an individual against a projectile propelled from a firearm. More particularly, the present invention relates to a body armor system and its method of use that is capable of detecting a projectile propelled from a firearm, computing the trajectory of the projectile, and moving the individual out of the path of the projectile to avoid being hit.
This is very interesting. However, I think there's a lot of potential problems to be worked out. I mean, even if it could sense fast moving objects and force you to dodge them, what if multiple bullets where coming from different directions.
