Last week, Boeing announced the successful development of a new portable laser cannon. Designed to destroy pesky drones buzzing around in sensitive locations, the High Energy Laser Mobile Demonstrator, or HEL MD, is small and deadly accurate.

The laser can hit within an inch or two of its target depending on the speed and distance —ideal for military use. Unfortunately, it sounds more like a dollar store laser pointer than any artillery from Star Wars.
