MERCERVILLE, New Jersey - June 1, 2009 - A U.S. industrial laser company says it has developed a functional vomit-ray system, ideal for use by cops or military personnel wishing to take down their opponents without shooting them. The firm proposes to issue the "non-lethal light fighting technology" in two form factors - light-saber/torch and blaster-pistol.

The so-called Dazer Laser™ technology comes from Laser Energetics, Inc, of New Jersey, which has been supplying more conventional laser equipment since 1991. Now, however, the company is pleased to announce its new Defender™ and Guardian™ chunder-beam weapons.

According to Laser Energetics' official statement:

"These non-lethal weapons have the ability to control the threat at ranges of 1 meter to 2400 meters (model dependent). The Dazer Laser™ - Light Fighting Technologies - emit a green 'eye safe' laser beam, that is shaped into approximately a 1 foot to 8 foot Dazer Zone™ (model dependent) which when focused on the threat’s eyes, the threat’s vision is temporarily impaired, balance is affected, and the threat becomes nauseous. This controls the threat, making it difficult to maneuver. The Ultimate Non-Lethal Weapon."
