Other similar devices include Long Range Acoustic Devices which use painful directed sound waves, and electroshock weapons such as Tasers, which deliver an incapacitating shock to the nervous system.

The most reminiscent of Herbert's fictional device is the microwave-based Active Denial System, which shows many of the same traits, but uses microwaves rather than nerve induction.
