Yeah. There are a lot of applications where Big Brother would want to find beating hearts so it can stop them from beating.
I wonder about the capabilities of this technology now and in the future. This is handheld and only works in close proximity. But I wonder if it can someday be adapted to be aircraft mounted and if it will be able to see every beating heart for miles around, even under meters of cover. A targeting system's wet dream. It was developed by NASA for tracking spacecraft after all, so it works over great distances of empty space.
