The Arcadia was a cartridge-based projection light-gun system that allowed for two types of light-guns, the Arcadia Electronic Skeet Shoot Rifle, which was a single-shot only rifle with a pump reload and featured force feedback, a speaker for audio feedback, and a red-dot sight built into the front sight, as well as the Radar Pistol, which had ...
Electric laser capable of producing a 100-kilowatt ray of light, with potential to be mounted in aircraft, ship, or vehicle. 2009: Experimental [67] [68] Northrop Grumman laser gun: Laser gun successfully tested by the U.S. Navy, mounted on the former USS Paul F. Foster and demonstrated destructive capability on a high-speed cruising target ...
DragonFire is a British laser directed-energy weapon (LDEW). It was first unveiled to the public as a technology demonstrator in 2017 at the Defence and Security Equipment International (DSEI) conference in London and is being developed by UK DragonFire, a collaboration consisting of MBDA UK, Leonardo UK, QinetiQ and the Defence Science and Technology Laboratory (dstl).

A weapon often described as an "anti-drone rifle" or "anti-drone gun" is a battery-powered electromagnetic pulse weapon held to an operator's shoulder, pointed at a flying target in a way similar to a rifle, and operated. While not a rifle or gun, it is so nicknamed as it is handled in the same way as a personal rifle.
An electrolaser is a type of electroshock weapon that is also a directed-energy weapon.It uses lasers to form an electrically conductive laser-induced plasma channel (LIPC). A fraction of a second later, a powerful electric current is sent down this plasma channel and delivered to the target, thus functioning overall as a large-scale, high energy, long-distance version of the Taser ...
The Outfit DEC or Laser Dazzle Sight (LDS) is a British ship-based laser. The veiling-glare laser utilizes ultraviolet light and is designed to dazzle by causing fluorescence in the lens of the human eye. There are other such laser weapon systems in development.

A particle-beam weapon uses a high-energy beam of atomic or subatomic particles to damage the target by disrupting its atomic and/or molecular structure. A particle-beam weapon is a type of space-based directed-energy weapon, which directs focused energy toward a target using atomic scale particles.
The first detection method, used by the NES Zapper, involves drawing each target sequentially in white light after the screen blacks out. The computer knows that if the diode detects light as it is drawing a square (or after the screen refreshes), then that is the target at which the gun is pointed.
