TASER (also variously "Taser" or "taser") is a brand of conducted energy device (CED) primarily used to incapacitate people by delivering an intense electric shock that briefly disrupts voluntary control of the muscles, allowing the person to be approached and handled without resistance.

The electrical circuit is powerful enough to disrupt the sensory and motor nerves of a target, but was deemed safe by engineers associated with Taser International. [2]
