Abstract

L'invention concerne un dispositif de protection interactive des signes vitaux d'un individu et une arme et un procédé permettant l'immobilisation et la capture de l'individu au moyen de ce dispositif. Le dispositif selon l'invention consiste en un dispositif destiné à la protection des fonctions vitales d'un individu et applicable de préférence mais pas exclusivement, aux armes de type à immobilisation et capture d'un individu, fonctionnant par décharges électriques ou autres émissions dans le corps de l'individu, afin de l'immobiliser tout en le protégeant des effets des décharges électriques. Le dispositif comprend des capteurs conçus pour détecter l'état vital de l'individu et des circuits de traitement de signal qui commandent le blocage et/ou la régulation de la décharge électrique de l'arme au moment du tire.
