I suppose that would be a more practical explanation; illumination generally refers to the application of light. In that sense, it would not be practical to assume that it would function similar to that of a device array of light emitting diodes (or other); used to induce confusion in the brain, causing said symptoms. A strobing effect would not output the same results of such a device either. Speculating the previous I don't think it would be accurate to say it would emitt (or illuminate); partial radiation, either. The device would have to be relatively safe to be approved for distribution for civilian use, which would mean that it generally would not have any permanent or long-term effects assuming exposure was not long-term. I still speculate there is some form of laser radiation involved since that is Wicked Laser's field of work. I guess one would have to maybe study the effects of different types of light, and/or laser radiation to provide an accurate assumption on what this thing actually does, because not all forms of light are visible; there's much more science involved here.
There are too many possibilities to speculate though, and I know Wicked Laser's is having a contest, but if you want some advice in the right direction you should look into studying about electromagnetic radiation, directed-energy weapons, infrared radiation, and some other applications. My best guess at this point (because I don't care to speculate further); is that this device is a Dazzler.
Good luck.
