This study, Deaths Following Electro-Muscular Disruption, began in May 2006, with full findings expected in 2009.
Deployed nonlethal weapons include blunt-impact munitions, optical warning and distraction devices, acoustic hailing devices, vehicle arresting systems, flash-bang grenades and munitions and short-range human electro-muscular incapacitation devices such as the Taser.
The Taser works on a technology known as Electro-Muscular Disruption (EMD), which causes neuromuscular incapacitation or NMI and can be considered responsible for the strong muscle contractions that the attacker feels.
