Hello everyone.
So today I made a bit of a discovery. I got some 3d glasses (the red blue type) and shone my 100mw green laser through it. When it went through the cyan one, it went straight through, no blocking there. Then when I put it through the red one, it blocked it completely! Only a very very small amount of the light got through. When looking down from a angle towards the laser through the red plastic, I can see the IR light as red, but can hardly see the green.
If I hold the red lens to my eyes and look at the spot on the wall or something, it appears as a very small white dot, and doesn't look too powerful, I cannot see the beam, or any of the spatter around the spot. This plastic works as a sort of laser goggle, and if I got 2 and glued them onto a small pair of spectacles, would they work as safety glasses and block green? I do not intend on using them as protection, just curious about whether it would work
