The Vector system operates from built-in 12-volt rechargeable batteries powering an adjustable beam range output of 0.1 to 300 milliwatts at 532 nanometers (nm). It is six times bright and has 100 ...

The answer to this conundrum, it seems, may lie in a new class of dual-focus zinc-selenide (ZnSe) lenses being co-developed by two of the EDGETECT2 partners: LBP Optics and its parent company ULO ...

Scientists have created contact lenses which allow the wearer to shoot lasers from their eyes like Superman. The ultra-thin membranes are placed on the iris and produce a green beam which can shine… ...

The contact lens sits on the eye, the entire cornea and pupil are covered, so there is no chance of a reflection, or high angle incident beam, sneaking behind the LEP [Laser Eye Protection].

Moreover, since the laser beam is modulated, the receiver can only accept the reflected light of the same frequency, so the influence of ambient light reflections can be effectively ruled out. The ...

Explain more about the design of their SLA 3D printer A laser beam usually has a Gaussian intensity profile – intense in the center and reduces towards edge. Optical lenses are used to focus the ...

Projector headlights are more common in modern cars, implementing a far more focused beam of light on to the road compared to ...

In a little-noticed 2006 test at University of Central Florida's Laser Plasma Laboratory, a 10-terawatt laser damaged a glass target 30 meters away using pulses lasting just 110 femtoseconds ...

The team also put a contact lens with one of their lasers onto a bovine eye in the lab. When excited with a pulsing, blue light, the lens emitted a green laser beam onto a screen 50 centimetres away.
