Abstract
A device for deterring movement of a detainee adapted to dispense pulsed electric current to a human's epidermis and dermis. The pulsed electric current can interfere temporarily with muscular locomotion of the detainee. Embodiments of the device for deterring movement of a detainee include, but are limited to bands, gloves and vests.
Claims20
A device deterring movement of a detainee comprising:
- a) a microprocessor embedded into a reusable, cleanable and conductive fabric;
- the microprocessor comprising a transceiver component;
- b) a memory in communication with the microprocessor;
- the memory holding software controlling operations of the device deterring movement of the detainee and data about activation/deactivation of the device deterring movement of the detainee, wherein the software and the microprocessor are adapted to:
- i) pair the microprocessor and memory with an operator's video camera such that an event can be recorded;
- and/or
- ii) coordinate a global positioning system tracking with the device deterring movement of a detainee;
- and
- iii) control an electric shock to a portion of exposed skin of the detainee by causing one of the at least two electrodes, embedded in the reusable, cleanable and conductive fabric, to administer a nonlethal electric shock to the detainee, wherein the nonlethal electric shock:
- travels only through the detainee's epidermis and dermis;
- is administered in ranges from about 210-380 volts, 0.5-1.5 amperes, charge levels of 84-125 microcoulombs and pulse durations between 105-115 microseconds;
- and
- interferes temporarily with muscular locomotion of the detainee;
- c) a rechargeable battery embedded into to the reusable, cleanable and conductive fabric;
- and
- d) circuitry interconnecting the transceiver component, the microprocessor, the memory, the rechargeable battery and the at least two electrodes.
