Minimizing Casualties and Limiting Collateral Damage

Human Effects Focus Day: August 20, 2012 Main Summit Days: August 21 22, 2012 Washington, D.C. Metro Area

Dear Colleague, American forces frequently operate in uncertain environments where it is difficult to distinguish the enemy from the civilians. Checkpoints, entry-control points, convoys, maritime security, patrols and crowd control are among the operations where our men and women in uniform routinely encounter threats. Success in these types of operations requires capabilities that enable our forces to minimize civilian casualties and collateral damage. Non-lethal weapons can support escalation-of-force and complement lethal weapons in these challenging environments. The committee reiterates its belief that non-lethal weapons can and should play an increasingly important role in meeting the evolving requirements of U.S. military strategy. U.S. House of Representatives, National Defense Authorization Act There is a growing demand from combatant commanders, law enforcement officers and political establishments for NLW capabilities. This demand is driven by their need to win the hearts and minds of the civilians and prevent the outcry and media attention that would result from non-combatant casualties. These requirements have influenced governments worldwide to invest in non-lethal weapons R&D and procurement dedicated to the full spectrum of public safety, law enforcement, crowd control and asymmetric warfare. What makes IDGAs Non-Lethal Weapons Summit your must-attend event for 2012? Exposure to the top government agencies and military offices dedicated to strategically enabling operators with NLW Updates on the force options available to warfighters and law enforcement so they can adapt to mission needs Discuss the latest implementation strategies and program initiatives to ensure the flexibility of our military and law enforcers Discover soon-to-be-fielded non-lethal weapons, highlighting effects, performance and effectiveness IDGAs Non-Lethal Weapons Summit will examine current and advanced technologies, operational and tactical efforts, requirements, legal and public acceptance, and the effects of NLW on their targets. Keynote speakers will discuss international human rights law, the laws of armed conflict, and planning considerations for the employment of non/less-lethal weapons. Time out of the office is sometimes hard to come by, and if youre going to attend one alternative weapons conference this year, the industrys choice for the best educational value and networking opportunity is IDGAs Non-Lethal Weapons Summit in Washington, DC. The speakers, sponsors and the IDGA team all look forward to seeing you in August for the Non-Lethal Weapons Summit. Sincerely,

Who will be at the conference?

11:00 AM 12:00 PM

Effects of Electro-Physical Stimulation from Taser-like Devices

Electroshock weapon technology uses a temporary high-voltage, low-current electrical discharge to override the bodys muscle-triggering mechanisms. The recipient feels pain and can be momentarily paralyzed while an electric current is being applied. Applying electroshock devices to more sensitive parts of the body is even more painful. The output current upon contact with the target will depend on various factors such as targets resistance, skin type, moisture, bodily salinity, clothing, the electroshock weapons internal circuitry, discharge waveform, and battery conditions. What will be covered: Electroshock weapons: effective and safer than other use-of-force options Medical risks such as cumulative exhaustion and breathing impairment Ventricular fibrillation How you will benefit: Investigate electroshock weapons techniques currently used Learn how to make accurate predictions of how these tactics may be used in various escalation-of-force situations James Comeaux, M.S.
