I'm the sixty-ninth like over here, dudes!

hed have to make some pretty serious precautions all things considered, cuz the ammo isnt even the most dangerous part of those guns... its the capacitors powering the entire thing

What it needs is more power for piercing and penetration, cause to me it just sounded week in my opinion.

@@metalpunk1234 yeah this technology is still pretty early and not that powerful, so far very few can shoot supersonic, give it a couple of years and you will see coilguns that are smaller AND shoot significantly faster

@@Breadlootgoblin your right and besides, I do believe that the cyberpunk era is also becoming truer than usual when it comes to advance military drones, weapons and robotics.

the big problem is weight. To make them sufficiently powerfull they would have to have a bunch of very strong capacitors. I don't see it used in the Infantry anytime soon, but battleships already got railguns and tanks could handle the weight. Especialy some next gen E tank or something

Oh yeah agree just cool but you cannot hunting with that rught?

If the public can buy something like this, rich private corpos developed way crazier weaponry probably in the 60s

Imagine what the military is developing

Imagine gnagnagnagna

They need high amp lithium polymere battery so they can dump faster.

It mostly has to do with the bullets changing form during flight. I've seen several of these, and the main problem is the same problem you have with muskets: the bullets don't stay straight after some distance. You can't use rifling for these, but maybe something similar to the fletching arrows have might help. Correction: The bullets don't stay straight during flight after an effective range. They will still pack a punch, but the force of impact will be distributed over a wider area instead of on a single point.

That's what I expected. When he said 200 - 230 feet per second i thought maybe he mistakenly said that. then they shot it & it sounded like the old spring fired cork guns. 🤣🤣🤣

I wonder if you could rifle the bullet instead of the barrel?

@@mazz9487 the big ones also fire at about 10% the muzzle velocity of a more or less standard handgun Honestly, I'm disappointed

personally i think coil guns are advancing pretty slow, isnt really any change in the last 10+ years imo

its not changed at all

You mean turning batteries on to charge magnets in a particular order? This is nothing more than a gimmick, did you have scalextrics when you were a kid? Same deal, except those cars moved way faster.

The batteries/capacitors/coils needed to make them as powerful as real guns alone would be world changing technology. They basically would need to 20x more energy dense, they would enable so much crazy technology. For perspective the last 2x increase in energy density made electric planes and drone taxis make sense. 20x would mean your personal little drone taxi could fly for 5 hours straight. Any corded power tools would be replaced with battery powered ones. Robots could run for 30 hours without recharging. Cars would go 12k miles without recharging. Your phone runs a month without recharging. I wouldn't be surprised if hover boards would be feasible then. Basically imagine any really power hungry application will be made portable. So yeah, it will still take a while lol.

Slowdown there, Kaneda. Akira is still a little ways away.

The added inductance of the wires would round off the pulse from the capacitor. The magnetic field from the coil would not drop as quickly, causing drag on the projectile. I don't know how much of an effect that will have on performance.

@@JamieStuff the inductance and resistance of the wires would be minimal especially if the voltage goes up drastically due to battery size.

What about supercapaciters?

@@dananorth895 you mean large capacitors? It would depend on weight and size of electrical system that could fit. Power/battery life are inverse, the more juice you give it the less times you can use it until recharge

Maybe connect the gun to a pair of car batteries for a .50 Cal version 😭

Or a Tesla wall minigun 🤤

Imagine if the metal bolts used were sharpened.

@username That is why every single country developing these guns for actual use are developing them for carriers and forts.

A plug-in window sill mounted version

And just think anything the military has is usually 10 years ahead of what we see if civilan models can do this they probably already have ones capable of that they probably just aren't cost effective or as range capable I know they are still testing big ones on ships though true rail guns rather than coil guns I think they would only find true effectiveness in space but then lasers are also much more effective in space due to the lack of atmosphere.

Well there are some limits of physics at play unfortunately, as the technology currently stands, it will never enter infantry hands as a valid rifle-type platform. They work awesome on ships and static emplacements, but unless some revolutionary developments are made in our understanding of magnetic propulsion it just wont happen. And even if it does it will just never be cost effective.

@@memesarentfunny2248 The only way I can see it working is inductive coulguns with some REALLY good caps that don't yet exist, never mind the transistors required to switch them.

Batteries, capacitors, and inductors are constantly improving. Energy densities and power efficiencies are always increasing, but at gradual rates. I'm guessing that these sorts of weapons won't stay very quiet when they're (eventually) able to fire projectiles at ballistic or Mach speeds.

@@pwnmeisterage battery tech is really not improving much right now, I suppose a backpack option could work or if they ever get fuel cells to work that might make a big difference. For a semi-static weapon, you could hook up to a generator :)

If they will penetrate 1/4 inch pine board they are likely lethal. If you took a cranium shot with either of those I’d say they are quite lethal.

Best be believin' in cyberpunk dystopias. _You're livin' in one!_

yeah, imagine if they put a sharper point on the bullets, that is definitely going in and causing some serious damage.

i question whether or not lethality is the goal for implementing one of these in certain real world scenarios. I feel like a much faster fire rate, larger capacity, and reasonably higher velocity on something like the smg sized one could prove more useful that the super bulky monstrosity you would need hold in order to achieve a lethal velocity. Getting hit by 10-20 disks in the span of a second, going really fast seems like it could be severely incapacitating. Dont get me wrong its awesome to think that we could have lethal coil guns and its important for people to work on the technology. But i dont think its to crazy to think that this could be useful (with a few tweaks) right not in crowd control/higher stress situations in which a non lethal weapon is preferable.

I hate when people use the word "technology".... technically this thing could have been made 100 years ago almost the exact same way... just with vacuum tubes instead of solid state... but even then a spark gap oscillator would have even more power.... but by the time this thing gets powerful enough the capacitors, coils, or batteries will still be massive.... look at the stupid tesla suv

@@chudwick8814 yes its is Marx Generator ..1 capacitor charges 3 ,6,9 finally last stage megatron..

@@chudwick8814 It's totally dependent upon the metal used for an anode and the electrolyte inside to the cathode. The kind you're seeing on these guns are the type found in most home electronics. There are aluminum coils that interact with a wet electrolyte inside that hold the charge that passes through the capacitor... just like the metal rod (aluminum, zinc, nickel) inside a battery is surrounded by a paste of alkaline, lithium ion, cadmium, or carbonized material. So when it comes right down to it, the same issue in making these guns more powerful is the same issue you have with extended life in EV batteries and solar power storage facilities.

What does Science say about shorts in those circuits, damage to the layers in the cap, or moisture invasion? one word......BOOM This is more likely to kill the one holding it than anything or one else.

@@truthsRsung While shorting can and usually does happen after multiple charge and discharge cycles, it appears the circuitry inside the microchip will prevent this from happening to a point. The charging employed is usually Delta V, and that will ensure the charge rate does not exceed the capacitance of the capacitors. The same tech is in most modern lithium ion chargers to prevent fires. When a capacitor finally does give out, it's usually due to the electrolyte inside drying out, at which point you'll smell it giving off a maple syrup smell.
