Rated as a mental power, Peter Parker's Spider-Sense rates as a 3 or 4 out of 7, depending on the card series. 

There have been discrepancies in explanations of how it works exactly, with someone claiming it's everything from:

* a simple highly-developed synaptic function that makes him react with inhuman speed ("verging on *precognition* " as the first movie said),
* an extension of infrared-spectrum based awareness, to low level clairvoyance,
* a type of "personal energy field" which can detect minute changes and interpret them via his enhanced sensitivity,
* a type of omni-present awareness of his surroundings, to *vastly* enhanced mechanosensor which... well, let the video explain it here:

Honestly, there's no *one* canonical explanation for the Spider-Sense, but all basically function the same way: as a personal precognitive "early warning system" which informs his movements, reactions and engages him with his immediate environment. Its core purposes have always been:

1. awareness based, as in feeding him a steady stream of information on his surroundings, and
2. defensive, as in letting him know when danger most specific to *him* may be present, even if he can't *see* its source.

However, like any other mental power, wouldn't it be fair to say there may be some unexplored *offensive* capability to it, as well? 

I don't mean it causing *Peter* to react to the danger and launch an attack, I mean **literally** if the sense *itself* has ever or possibly could be weaponized and used to attack an opponent directly?

If the Spider-Sense itself is perhaps signal-based, then could it not be used as some form of projected, focused mental attack?

The closest example I was able to find of this was in the 1980s **Spider-Man and His Amazing Friends** cartoon, However, that was based on the fact that it was *2* people with the *same* signal of 6th sense essentially "jamming" each other. You can see it here:

I was wondering if there were any examples in comic of this being used on normal humans or of Peter's powers growing of their own accord and thus developing that way.

I know Kane had painful premonitions which stemmed from his more developed Spider-Sense, but that's about it.
