With a single trigger pull resulting in only one deployed probe—necessitating a second trigger pull to hope to achieve neuromuscular incapacitation (NMI)—there will certainly be some serious training implications.

Madden explained further, "For example, the X26P requires the user to effectively deploy two darts simultaneously, while the TASER 10 allows the user to deploy one probe at a time. The TASER 7 utilizes tilt select to switch between close range and stand-off cartridges, and with the TASER 10, officers can pick their own spread to achieve NMI."

Late last month, Axon announced the launch of its next-generation conducted energy weapon (CED), the TASER 10. There are some substantial differences between this new device and every other previous version, including a significantly increased range of 45 feet—compared to previous models that have a 25-foot maximum range—potentially providing increased space and time to de-escalate and resolve confrontations with non-compliant subjects.

Further, agencies that purchase new ECDs in conjunction with Axon's VR training platform can engage in simulated scenarios designed to increase physical proficiency such as body movement and weapons transitions, improve decision-making skills, as well as rehearse and refine verbal de-escalation techniques.

Interestingly, NMI is achieved despite a massive reduction in the voltage output of the device, down to approximately 1,000 volts, compared with roughly 50,000 volts commonly produced by previous generations of TASER devices.

Further, the new device can deploy up to 10 probes (compared with four probes previously), which the company says affords officers the opportunity for multiple repeated attempts to make a good connection to create neuromuscular incapacitation (NMI). Axon says that by leveraging "smart technology" the new ECD delivers only the charge necessary to achieve NMI—regardless of how many probes make a connection, the device will only deliver current to the best four connections.

Every visa applicant, no matter their age, must bring certain documents to the interview, including photographs, and the original or certified copy version of all civil documents submitted to NVC. You do not need to bring your Affidavit of Support or financial evidence you submitted to NVC.

Interviewquestions

The TASER 10 requires two trigger pulls—one per probe—which will almost certainly have some training implications and necessitate serious retraining for most officers.

Interviewquestions to ask

Unsurprisingly, the new ECD integrates seamlessly with the company's cloud-based data storage service—Axon Evidence—in such a way to enable agencies to record (and later retrieve) information on user activity and event logs. Further, the device also features "smart holster" technology which—when paired with certified holsters—allows the TASER 10 to detect when it has been removed from a holster. This de-holstering event then emits a wireless signal to alert nearby body-worn and in-car cameras to begin recording (if they aren't already doing so).

Perhaps the most important difference—both from an operational and training standpoint—is the fact that the probes themselves are deployed one at a time. Anyone familiar with earlier TASER devices—and that is to say, anything predating this newest, just released version—is accustomed to the fact that a single trigger pull deploys both probes.

After your exam, the Panel Physician will either send the exam results directly to the embassy or give you a sealed envelope. If the doctor gives you an envelope, do not open it. Instead, bring it to your visa interview and give it to the consular officer.

After the National Visa Center (NVC) schedules your visa interview appointment, they will send you, your petitioner, and your agent/attorney (if applicable) an email noting the appointment date and time.  After you receive an interview Appointment Letter from NVC, you must take the following steps BEFORE the interview date.

You (and each family member or “derivative applicant” applying for a visa with you) are required to schedule a medical appointment with an authorized physician in the country where you will be interviewed. This exam must be with an embassy-approved doctor, also referred to as the Panel Physician. Exams conducted by other physicians will not be accepted. The exam results can take up to 96 hours. You must complete your medical examination, along with any required vaccinations, before your scheduled visa interview date. Please visit our List of U.S. Embassies and Consulates for country-specific medical examination instructions.

What happens if you forget to bring something on this list? The consular officer will not be able to complete the processing of your visa. You will have to gather the missing items and provide them to the embassy or consulate, and may have to come for additional interviews. Failure to bring all items on the above list can delay visa issuance.

This begins with Axon's fundamental TASER 10 Training curriculum, which combines online eLearning segments, in-person classroom curriculum (including tabletop drills), as well as physical skill-building, stress-inoculation, and critical-decision-making drills.

Pat Madden—TASER Senior Vice President—told POLICE, "There is always going to be a learning curve when transitioning from one technology to another. However, we are finding that with our evaluation partners, officers are finding the TASER 10 intuitive and easy to use."

Applicant: A foreign citizen who is applying for a nonimmigrant or immigrant U.S. visa. The visa applicant may also be referred as a beneficiary for petition based visas.

Finally, the company's Master Instructor Schools (MIS)—hosted at a variety of agencies across the United States and around the world—have begun incorporating TASER 10 training into their curriculum.
