The heatwave weapon can, by contrast, target troublemakers from
750 metres. It works by dispatching high-powered radio waves from
a vehicle antenna, similar to a satellite television dish, causing
the molecules in a target's skin to vibrate violently, creating a
burning sensation.


I wonder what type of defense will be necessary against such a weapon?

Metallic threads woven into the threads making up ones attire? Metallic
powders bonded within the fabric? Conductive carbon fibers?

Be interesting to see what offerings come about ...
