Electroshock device for monitoring target response
First Claim
1. A method for delivering an electrical discharge to a target by an electroshock device, the method comprising:
- attaching one or more electrodes to the target by projecting the one or more electrodes from the electroshock device;
delivering the electrical discharge to the target via the one or more electrodes;
monitoring a physiological condition of the target using the one or more electrodes;
determining a position of the one or more electrodes at the target; and
modulating the electrical discharge based on the physiological condition and the position of the one or more electrodes.

Abstract
An electroshock device for delivering an electrical discharge to a target includes an electrical discharge circuit, and an electrode coupled to the electrical discharge circuit and having an attachment feature attachable to the target. Upon attachment the electrode is enabled to monitor a physiological condition of the target, generate a signal based on the physiological condition, and deliver the electrical discharge to the target. The electroshock device also includes a controller communicatively coupled to the electrical discharge circuit and the electrode. The controller is configured to modulate delivery of the electrical discharge based on the physiological condition of the target.
