The LaWS is designed to be used against low-end asymmetric threats. Scalable power levels allow it to be used on low power to dazzle a person's eye non-lethally to turn away a threat, and to be used at high power, up to 30 kilowatts, to fry sensors, burn out motors, and detonate explosive materials.
IR Illuminator Class. IIIb. IR Illuminator Output ( mw) 30 mW. IR Illuminator Divergence ( mrad) 3 mrad to 10°. IR Illuminator Wavelength ( nm) 830 nm [2] The AN/PEQ-2 Infrared Target Pointer/Illuminator/Aiming Light ( ITPIAL) is a laser sight for use on rifles fitted with a Picatinny rail.
High power applications, such as hardening, cladding, and deep penetrating welding, require multiple kW of optical power, and are used in a broad range of industrial processes. Micro material processing is a category that includes all laser material processing applications under 1 kilowatt. [12]
The new research, which was funded by the US Air Force, found a solution to limit the scattering and produce a high-quality, high-powered beam capable of causing major damage to a distant target.
Browning Hi-Power Practical .40 S&W Browning Hi-Power SFS with Crimson Trace laser sight Mark III was another advancement over the Mark II released in 1988, which featured a firing pin safety and a black epoxy finish.
Material processing, rangefinding, laser target designation, surgery, tattoo removal, hair removal, research, pumping other lasers (combined with frequency doubling to produce a green 532 nm beam). One of the most common high-power lasers. Usually pulsed (down to fractions of a nanosecond ), dental laser.
The general idea of laser-beam weaponry is to hit a target with a train of brief pulses of light. The United States Navy has tested the very short-range (1 mile), 30- kW Laser Weapon System or LaWS to be used against targets like small UAVs, rocket-propelled grenades, and visible motorboat or helicopter engines.
Laser sight (firearms) Singaporean soldier aiming a SAR 21 with laser sight. A laser sight is a device attached or integral to a firearm to aid target acquisition. Unlike optical and iron sights where the user looks through the device to aim at the target, laser sights project a beam onto the target, providing a visual reference point.
A laser pointer or laser pen is a (typically battery-powered) handheld device that uses a laser diode to emit a narrow low-power visible laser beam (i.e. coherent light) to highlight something of interest with a small bright colored spot.
Moderate and high-power lasers are potentially hazardous because they can burn the retina, or even the skin. To control the risk of injury, various specifications, for example 21 Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) Part 1040 in the US and IEC 60825 internationally
