I pointed my 10mW laser to my PC and I found this cool reflexion inside it.

Neat, looks like its bouncing back and forth inside the plex

It's one of its sides, this is my box:

You can see the UV-Reflective orange ink. The laser dot looks green if you point at it, but the reflection on the wall is still green. It's awesome.

edit: LOL, the donald duck thing on the wall, belive me, I'm not that young lol.

That's a cool computer case. You need this fan for inside it.
Linchi 3 Color LED Neon 120mm Fan
Check out this site, All kinds of neat fans.

BTW:Very nice pictures too!

Yeah next time I go to electronics store I will buy some LEDs, some LEDs "drivers" and a uC, and I will control the LEDs inside it with a program in the PC.
(rgb obviously :D)

I love lights and lasers, leds, neon lights etc... one day my room will be completely illuminated with RGB lights :D:D and I will love this day.

ohh that looks simular to the effect i get on my pool fence... its glass. When I point 405nm into the fence, it bounces of the different laminated layers in a zig zag shape and turns a yellow colour... very cool.

pics to follow!

Edit: here are the pic.... I took them with my crap phone camera. If you are interested, I can take some long exposure shots with my camera. The yellow is much brighter then the 405nm... obviously because it is closer to green then violet. But when compared with my over spec 50mw green (avg output 60mw) it is almost on par for brightness... but didnt show very well in the pictures.

This image was taken when the beam was put half on one layer and half on another, with the laminate material in the middle... gave off a strong yellow colour.

This image shows the 405nm beam bouncing between layers... you can see (in real life) where it hits the laminate, it turns a strong yellow.

Same effect with a 120mm magnifying glass and a SF-AW210 blu-ray:

In reality, glow is yellow-green. I have another lens which glows orange but is smaller so I used this one for the photo.
BTW, for some reason it's hard to make a good photo of this effect.

Thats pretty cool :)

You can also get it to work in liquids - if you fill a petri dish (or some other shallow glass bowl) and shine the laser in, it will bounce off the water-air interface, but also the water-glass interface if you get the angles just right.

Now i wonder: If i get a big plexiglass tube and cut something the size of a table out of that, would it be doable to make the light spiral around in it? :)

I'm doing something similar right now. Will post pictures in a short while.

This is a measuring cylinder filled with simple fluorescing fluid (just some ink solved in water). First two pictures are with blu-ray, third is with green laser.
