Re: Watch T.V.? Or play with your laser? Now you d My thoughts to the T!

http://www.techradar.com/news/home-cinema/mitsubishi-beams-out-world-s-first-laser-powered-tv-480280 Good news everybody!! Laser have worked their way into the major entertainment media, thus ensuring the continued use, development, and survival of laser technology. Our future is secure!

What about Faraday rotators?

Re: Idiot with a 5mw red laser in my math class :< Don't show that screw-up a burning laser, it might encourage him. Just give the jerk a righteous wallop of virtue, repeatedly. Or if you want to do it the right (thought less entertaining) way you could just tell the teacher.

Nay Sayers! No I don't think there will be any way to replace a kinetic weapon but we can radically alter the battle field. Remember lasers are silent (in comparison to gun and if proper models are used maybe entirely) and if its in the correct wavelength it cant be seen, there is no forensic...

http://www.theregister.co.uk/2008/10/20/northrop_laser_rifl_contract/ I am just drooling thinking about it. Now we dont have to worry about killing ourselves with toxic chemicals.

Don't worry about it. The military has all the wreckage from Roswell and they have adapted the technology for their own uses. If those alien freaks try to attack America we will kill them with their own technology. As far as everyone else goes, your screwed.............

Well the next time some thug tries to rob your house, you will see how necessary a gun is. But I can see the scenario now, a crazed electrical engineering student builds CO2 laser weapon. Goes on lasing rampage but then jerks the laser too hard pulling loose the hose on the water cooling...

Screwed-up sissy oversensitive narcissistic closed minded liberals who think the world completely revolves around them, and who bigotedly narrow-mindedly label anyone who doesn’t agree with them as a “narrow minded bigot,” and who try to force the world into accepting their obviously flawed...

Hey that is a brilliant idea!!!!! We can start our own lobby! Lasers by far are considered less dangerous then guns, we can piggy back on the NRA and other second amendment groups. We would be less confronted, granted we may have a harder time getting new members. Perhaps we should start with...

I thought we were..........

Don't worry everybody, whenever an oppressive bloated bureaucratic fascist agency blocks our rights a black market is there to help. Not only that, a laser can be made at home much easer then a gun (well its really the ammo that is the hard part). If they outlaw guns I will build my own...

I wanted to know how many of you have tried modify lasing cavities and what your results were. As far as I can tell just using your standard cylinder with mirrors on the flat ends is inefficient. How would adding more reflective surfaces or making different shapes(of the cavity) can modify the beam.

I think your talking about a concentrated beam. Remember the light can fully fill the eye (there by burning all the retina, and/or all the retina use for seeing). Like when you look at something too bright you cant see anything else.

No that a reference to an even that happened one time. Those CSI shows have so many scenarios, they are bound to make one that could actually happen.

Sunglasses? Lasers on your eyes? and people tell me I am dangerous!!!! I suppose you could use laser as a form of heads up display for heat and or sonic telemetry. Could be used to track small bugs/rodents or what not. But I don’t know if its a good idea. I mean if you see some hot chick and...

"I am Locutus... of Borg. Resistance... is futile. Your life as it has been... is over. From this time forward... you will service... us."

I heard of a guy who lost one of his eyes (not just his sight, the eye itself). The beam burnt a portion of his retina and it got infected. The doctors had to remove it, we now call him Pirate Pete.

Yes your correct in your assessment of my plan. I was thinking if I can get the goggles working I would save money in the long. And it would also be good practice for my masters in EE.
