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]
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
The Peresvet (Russian: Пересвет), named after Alexander Peresvet, is a Russian laser weapon for air defense and anti-satellite warfare. [4] [3] [5] The Peresvet is one of the six new Russian strategic weapons unveiled by Russian President Vladimir Putin on 1 March 2018.
The High Energy Laser with Integrated Optical-dazzler and Surveillance ( HELIOS) is a 60 kW+ high energy laser designed to intercept aerial threats such as drones, missiles, and other airborne targets and even small boats.
