The laser pointer beam does travel a long distance

How far are we from the handheld laser gun? Will it replace traditional ammunition? Changing the high power laser pointer weapon carried by a typical rifle man is incredibly far from our current level of technology and any reasonably foreseeable past. We are not talking about just needing better batteries and better laser transmitters, but about the…

What if someone looks at the laser pointer from the rifle scope?

The scope is enlarged. Lasers are already very dangerous. Even a cheap high power laser pointer, when pointed at your eyes, can ruin your vision. I suspect that the scope will magnify the laser, and depending on the type of laser, it will bring you a greater risk of damaging your eyesight. How effective is the…

Very compact thermal rifle sight laser pointer

If two countries have soldiers at war and both have infrared high power laser pointer night vision goggles, can’t they see each other’s location? Yes, this is a good question. Since I retired in 2003, because these things are common, my information is a bit limited. In Korea in the mid-1980s, we had passive night vision, called…

Can laser pointer shoot down hypersonic missiles?

In concept it’s miles possible. In exercise, things are a great deal extra complex. Considering that i am no longer an engineer, please maintain my word. Hypersonic missiles are designed to perform in a flight envelope, which has a totally huge hassle, specifically the running temperature. That is why those motors are normally made of…

The laser pointer power supply is a usable light source

Does the colour of superstar Wars lasers decide their electricity? Is there a shade-based totally laser/plasma layer? Well, i am no longer positive, but based totally on circumstantial proof, i would say that blue is the only for robots because clones use them in opposition to robot armies. Crimson seems to be widespread due to…

Coherence keeps the laser pointer beam focused at a distance

Why is the laser beam so thin? There is no absolute reason to say that they must be thin. The “green laser pointer” is only light amplified by stimulated radiation, so if you prepare some optical gain medium in its excited state and put in some “seed” light of the correct frequency, it will be…

I am looking at how to use the thin laser pointer beam

I’m not entirely sure what you mean is that thick and wide are two different things. My view on the product described in her link is a device that uses an IR green laser pointer diode as an illumination source, and uses an adjustable zoom lens type device to spread the light from the laser source to…
