The Geonosian sonic cannon smashed bones but left local architecture undamaged.
A sonic weapon was a type of weapon that generated waves of sonic energy when fired. The Geonosian sonic blaster and the LR1K sonic cannon were models of sonic weapon used by the Geonosian species.[1] During a period of war on the planet Geonosis, the Geonosian hives used sonic weapons in their battles[2] for the planet's resources as well as dominance over each other.[3] Sonic cannons, including the LR1Ks manufactured by Gordarl Weaponsmiths,[4] could be set to forces of varying degrees to smash bones while leaving the Geonosians' rock tunnels unharmed.[2]
