I don't know the specific function, but it appears to be similar to that of devices used tactically that emit laser or partical radiation that causes mental confusion, and can cause instantaneous vomitting and other symptoms. Such devices work because the brain cannot process the immediate flow; the vast quantity of particles/radiation emitted all at the same time. My speculation would be such a device could be used for interrogation purposes, but my speculation could be completely off. It doesn't look like something portable and convenient, and it has the appearance of a special use item; specific circumstance implied. It's difficult to tell from the image; more of a render then real-life photograph of the device. I don't think it would be a device that would cause temporary blindless or impaired vision. Wicked Lasers specializes in laser technology, and if I recall laser weaponry is a violation of the Geneva Convention and I doubt that it would be available to the public if this were the case.
