==Design== Erich Lutter, an SS leader who headed Department II D 4 (weapons) in the Reich Security Main Office, developed the concept in 1942 for automatic shooting systems on the fences of concentration camps and ghettos known as Scharfschützenmine (Sniper mine). This was intended to prevent prisoners from escaping with minimal personnel expenditure. Lutter's designs were never realized.
