(NASDAQ: TASR) announced that both the Taser(R) AXON and EVIDENCE.COM were honored with 2009 Innovation Awards presented by the Cygnus Law Enforcement Group during the International Association of Chiefs of Police annual conference in Denver, CO.

Taser International's first foray into Software as a Service, EVIDENCE.COM, won in the Software category, while the Taser AXON took top honors in the Computer category, beating out tough competitors like Panasonic. AXON integrates with EVIDENCE.COM to protect truth through a revolutionary end-to-end integrated solution to securely capture, transfer, store, and analyze digital evidence.

Taser(R) AXON is an on-officer tactical computer and audio-video recorder that captures incidents from the officer's perspective. With AXON, law enforcement agencies now have the ability to show administrators and jurors exactly what the officer saw. The AXON system is designed to integrate seamlessly into existing law enforcement radio communications equipment, providing two-way communication in addition to full audio-video recording from a head camera the size and weight of a standard Bluetooth(R) headset. In addition, AXON has integrated GPS for tracking officer location to enhance situational awareness and officer safety.

AXON, together with EVIDENCE.COM, will protect truth through an end-to-end integrated solution to securely capture, transfer, store, and analyze digital evidence. This platform enables tactical and strategic decision making by law enforcement, as well provides court admissible evidentiary data.
