Shielding technology that can be miniaturized to protect a single person. Person-sized shields were tuned to only protect against higher velocity kinetics because if it goes too low it stops allowing air exchange.
- varjag 3y agoWhich is a goof since air molecules at room temperature whizz at about 500m/s.
- otabdeveloper4 3y agoIt's probably tuned to momentum, not velocity. (Momentum is really what we talk about when we talk about "speed" colloquially anyways.)
- varjag 3y agoHow would it work then though, as the momentum of air draft is still much less than that of a slow striking blade.

- moffkalast 3y agoI think the problem is that you're trying to apply logic to a plot device.
- WithinReason 3y agomaybe it's in kg/s
