无标题文档

With the coming of Children's Day,CNIS(China National Institute of Standar dization) issued the "results of protecting children's eyes from dangerous products".

From the research,most of parents knows partly of production will have a bad effect on eyes,but they do not give children's vision an examination.Master of CNIS(China National Institute of Standar dization) said that this research has been operated by questionaire aimed at parents from 16 primary schools.

It is suggested that,96% of parents think computer and telephone are the source of damage.Meanwhile,85% of parents choose the television and laser pointer pen .As for the examination of eyes,there are only 41.4% of them will give regular examination for their child.Except that,11.6% of parents pay little attention to the instruction of product.

Master of CNIS(China National Institute of Standar dization) said that,the Ultra Powerful Laser Pointer ranking No.1 at the list of damage source.He said that ,laser pointer will release a heat effect which may cause heavy damage on eyes and skin.Because of the imaging features of the eye, when the laser arrives at eyes, it will be focused on the retina.In that case,an increasing temperature will come into being which will make a damage for the cells of retinal .

If they are burning laser pointers ,they will make a thoroughgoing damage once we do not blink immediately.

Laser Lidar Guidance Adds Power to Wind Turbines

The wind industry may soon be dependent on a different kind of environmental awareness that has more to do with lasers than ecology.

A new laser pointer 100mw system that can be mounted on wind turbines allows them to prepare for the wind rushing toward their blades.

The lasers act like sonar for the wind, bouncing off microscopically small particulates and back to a fiber optic detector. That data is fed to an on-board processor that generates a three-dimensional view of the wind speed and direction. Subtle adjustments in the turbine blade’s angle to the window allows it to capture more energy and protect itself in case of strong gusts.

The startup company that developed the Vindicator system, Catch the Wind, recently deployed a wind unit on a Nebraska Public Power District turbine. It increased the production of the unit (.pdf) by more than 10 percent, according to the company’s white paper. If those numbers held across the nations’ 35 gigawatts of installed wind capacity, the laser lidar (Light Detection and Ranging) sensors could add more than 3.5 gigawatts of wind capacity without adding a single additional turbine.

“This is what they call disruptive technology,” said William Fetzer, vice president of business development for Catch the Wind. “There are roughly 80,000 to 90,000 wind turbines out in the world, and they don’t have this technology.”

Wind farms are only as good as their data. There have been revolutions in assessing wind resources over long time-scales, but the short-term gustiness of the wind has remained a problem.

Current wind turbines rely on wind-measuring instruments known as anemometers that are mounted to the back of the turbine’s gear-housing unit, called a nacelle. The data from the wind is fed to a computer that optimizes the blades’ configuration to capture the most energy from the wind.

In many cases, cup anemometers, which took their current form in the 1930s, are still used. They work well enough, but have to be positioned behind the blades, which subjects them to turbulence. And, importantly, they can only tell you how fast the wind was blowing after it passed. That doesn’t help you with a freak gust of wind or any of the odd behavior that renewable energy developers have caught the wind exhibiting.

Fort Felker, director of the National Renewable Energy Laboratory’s National Wind Technology Center, said he saw great potential in laser pointer 200mw lidar and similar sound-wave-based systems generally.

“Once you have a detailed knowledge of the coming wind, there are a lot of opportunities,” said Felker told Wired.com.

While he estimates the amount of energy that could be captured is below Catch the Wind’s 10 percent, he said the systems could really help reduce the wear-and-tear on machines caused by strong winds hitting improperly positioned blades.

“Researchers have already demonstrated that substantial reduction of loads is certainly possible,” Felker said.

laser lidar, despite first being demonstrated for wind measurement in the 1970s, has been slow to catch on. The systems have been too expensive.

“Widespread deployment of the technique has so far been hampered by the expense and complexity of laser lidar systems,” a 2005 NREL research report found. “However, the recent development of laser lidar systems based on optical fiber and components from the telecommunications industry promises large improvements in cost, compactness, and reliability so that it becomes viable to consider the deployment of such systems on large wind turbines.”

Now, even the most venerable R&D testing group in the world, the Danish National Laboratory for Sustainable Energy’s Ris?e wind outfit, is working on a turbine-mounted laser lidar system, though they only claim a 5 percent increase in electricity production.

Catch the Wind grew out of a small-business grant that the company’s predecessor, Optical Air Data Systems, received from the U.S. military. They developed a laser lidar system for helicopters working in the dusty Iraq and Afghanistan terrain. The company developed their rugged and relatively lightweight laser lidar systems by marrying aerospace knowledge with emerging telecommunications tech like better fiber optic cables and laser pointer 300mw diodes.

Still, Catch the Wind may have a tough road ahead. The energy industry is notoriously risk averse. Besides, wind electricity in many places is already cheaper than wholesale electricity prices.

Erin Edholm, a representative for National Wind, a wind-farm developer that’s put in more than 4,000 megawatts of turbines, said that the company’s wind resource assessment team “has not used [laser lidar] or considered using it to date.”

But that doesn’t dim the hopes of Catch the Wind’s Fetzer for the company’s ultimate success.

“When you do disruptive technologies, it takes time,” Fetzer said. “People don’t believe that things are as bad as they are until they can see what we can do.”

It helps that they don’t need the wind turbine manufacturers to incorporate their technology to jump start their business. They’ve got what’s known as a “bolt-on” solution, meaning it can be attached to existing turbines. They don’t need manufacturers to incorporate their product to sell it to wind farms.

Still, some wind farmers may worry that the warranties they have on their turbines would be voided by adding a laser lidar system. Fetzer said Catch the Wind is working out the warranty issues.

General Electric, which is the largest wind turbine manufacturer in the United States, is not using or developing laser lidar specifically, either. Catch the Wind did recently sell one of their machines to a large, unnamed turbine manufacturer.

Though Catch the Wind is not discussing pricing for their products, Fetzer maintains that their customers will make their money back in the three-to-five year range that he says wind developers are looking for. The 2005 NREL report calculated a preliminary cost for a generic laser lidar system of less than $95,000, once production was up and running.

The development of controls for capturing the most energy from the wind has been a constant theme in wind energy research. But it’s not always the company that develops the technology that reaps the rewards from its commercialization. Wind turbines in the 1980s struggled mightily to convert the wind’s gusty capriciousness into steady rotary power.

At the time, the turbine’s rotor had to turn at a constant rate. Researchers realized that their machines could operate over a larger range of speeds if the rotor could speed up or slow down in response to the wind, but they would need power electronics to translate the power into electricity suitable for the grid.

A multimillion dollar R&D program launched by laser pointer U.S. Windpower and the Electric Power Research Institute to commercialize a variable-speed rotor resulted in a mostly defective turbine design that helped push U.S. Windpower out of business. The variable-speed rotor went on to become a standard part of wind turbine designs.

Catch the Wind obviously is hoping not to suffer the same fate. They are exploring a variety of business models including sharing the revenue from the extra power they say their systems can generate. If they don’t generate any more electricity, the wind turbine owner doesn’t pay anything. If they do, Catch the Wind gets half the take.

Laser Pointer use - Will a Bendable Laser Scalpel Make the Cut?

Laser technology has proved to be an invaluable surgical tool, be it to improve eyesight, repair torn retinas, zap kidney stones, or to delicately remove spinal tumors. Still, despite more than four decades of use in the operating room, laser surgery has been limited by the fact that its energy travels in straight lines. This means that a laser works best on areas that can be reached with a straight shot. Maneuvering the beam so that it can reach out-of-the-way areas—without damaging healthy tissue—is sometimes done, using a series of mirrors to guide the blue laser pointer beam, but this typically dilutes the laser's strength.

An approach to laser surgery on the market for barely more than a year, however, seeks to add a new level of flexibility to optical scalpels by directing the infrared energy of a high-intensity carbon dioxide (CO2) laser through a flexible fiber tube lined with reflective material. This gives the surgeon the ability to snake the laser safely through the body to wherever it is needed without losing any of the beam's strength.

The BeamPath CO2 laser energy system (manufactured by OmniGuide, an optics company in Cambridge, Mass.) marks a significant improvement over optical scalpels used over the past three decades to perform precision microsurgery, says Yair Schindel, OmniGuide's vice president of clinical affairs and business development."Going deeper into the body, to places where you couldn't see, was impossible" with the old lasers, delivered through a large articulating arm, he says. "If you couldn't see it, you couldn't get to it."

OmniGuide chose the CO2 green laser pointer—produced by exciting carbon dioxide gas within a sealed tube—because it was already commonly used in operating rooms, given its ability to effectively ablate, cut and cauterize tissue. It is the most precise optical scalpel available, Schindel says, adding, other laser-light wavelengths, such as those created using argon or krypton lasers, are not absorbed as quickly by certain human tissues, "so they do more cooking than cutting."

Still, conventional CO2 lasers have difficulty with incisions that must be made at awkward angles. "If you think of a large tumor inthe throat, you would have to shoot the laser from [16 inches (40 centimeters)] away, manipulating both the light and the patient to reach the tumor," Schindel says. The alternative: a laryngectomy, a less precise procedure in which all or some the vocal cords are removed. OmniGuide's laser can also be used with a flexible fiber–tipped endoscope. "The surgeon can go through the nose, mouth, ear or other small openings," Schindel says, "and [laser] and view at the same time."

Inside each BeamPath fiber, fewer than 20 microscopic layers of alternating, custom-designed infrared glass and polymer form a reflective system known as a "photonic band-gap structure." (pdf) The design stemmed from research conducted by OmniGuide co-founder and CEO Yoel Fink in 1998 when he was a graduate student at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology's (M.I.T.) Plasma Science and Fusion Center. Fink and his colleagues studied ways to devise the "perfect mirror," a surface that reflects light of all wavelengths and from all angles, for the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA), the U.S. Defense Department's the research arm. Since its 2000 start up, OmniGuide has invested $70 million into researching and developing the materials and technology needed to produce this superthin silicon fiber.

Water, which constitutes more than 60 percent of human tissue, absorbs CO2 laser energy well, enabling such devices to make a more precise cut than a normal scalpel with minimal thermal damage to surrounding healthy tissue, says Lee Nelson, a neurosurgeon with Boulder Neurosurgical Associates in Colorado. BeamPath technology allows CO2 laser energy to be transmitted down a hollow-core fiber and used as a handheld laser scalpel, which Nelson says he used in 30 brain and spinal cord surgeries that he has performed since October. "We knew about the advantages of the CO2 laser," he says, "but it had never been practical to use."

The BeamPath allows surgeons to do some procedures that a normal scalpel cannot do. For example, when a surgeon presses a regular metal scalpel into an organ, it depresses the tissue around it, potentially causing damage to healthy cells surrounding targeted tumors. Unlike a normal scalpel, the BeamPath fiber does not require tissue manipulation, Nelson says, adding, it also controls bleeding better than a metal scalpel by cauterizing, or searing and sealing, nearby blood vessels.

The flexible CO2 green laser pointer 30mw scalpel has special appeal for lower-back surgery, an area where diseased tissue is often difficult to remove. "When you remove this tissue with standard tools, you are sometimes left with arthritic tissue in the spinal canal causing patients to continue to feel pain even after the surgery," Nelson says. "With the CO2 laser, you can dissolve that [damaged] tissue. Instead of pulling or tearing that tissue, we're now simply ablating it." Nelson says that so far, the patients he has treated this way have experienced less pain than those who have undergone traditional surgery, but he adds that he needs a few more years to expand his sample size enough to prove that the laser is the reason for the reduction in pain.

The cost of the technology—from $500 to $1,800 a fiber—has been the major reason it is not used more widely yet. Nelson says he needs to prove that the BeamPath improves patient outcomes to justify opening his wallet for more of these devices. There are two potential limitations on the fibers: their stability when energized and their inability to be sterilized, which means they must be discarded after each use, Nelson notes.

The fiber used to channel the laser typically lasts four hours, tops, before the laser burns through it and it needs to be replaced, says Bruce Haughey, director of head and neck surgical otolaryngology at Barnes–Jewish Hospital in Saint Louis. He notes that the scalpel's fibers can be replaced in a matter of minutes, however, it also takes longer to make incisions using the BeamPath than it does using straight, line of sight CO2 lasers, because the new technology delivers only about 20 watts, half the cutting power that surgeons wield with the older variety.Haughey, who has performed about 100 surgeries since 2007 with the BeamPath, says he uses the device to remove tumors—to do minimally invasive microsurgery on patients who would otherwise have had to go under the knife to have malignancies removed from hard-to-reach spots, such as the base of the tongue, the mouth floor, or the side walls of the pharynx (the part of the neck and throat directly behind the mouth and nasal cavity). Haughey says that the flexible BeamPath fiber extends the reach of the laser scalpel in close quarters, easily and safely negotiating healthy tissue to reach targeted growths. To do that in the past, "we could rather crudely bounce the green 200mw laser pointer off a mirror, but (the beam) lost a lot of power that way," he says, adding that he did that only once or twice out of the thousands of surgeries he has performed.

BeamPath is now primarily used by orthopedic as well as ear, nose and throat surgeons, but Schindel says that gynecologists, pulmonologists and urologists are also interested in seeing if this technology can make the cut.

Tests Underscore Potential Hazards of Green Laser Pointers

Using a low-cost apparatus designed to quickly and accurately measure the properties of handheld laser devices, National Institute of Standards and Technology researchers tested 122 burning laser pointers and found that nearly 90 percent of green pointers and about 44 percent of red pointers tested were out of compliance with federal safety regulations. test apparatus was designed so that it can be replicated easily by other institutions.

As researchers reported at a conference on March 20, 2013, both red and green laser pointers often emitted more visible power than allowed under the Code of Federal Regulations (CFR), and green pointers often emitted unacceptable levels of infrared light as well.

Anecdotal reports of green laser hazards have previously appeared in scientific journals and the media, but the new tests are the first reported precision measurements of a large number of handheld laser
devices. Tests point out that many red laser pointers are also—unexpectedly—out of compliance with federal regulations. "Our results raise numerous safety questions regarding laser pointers and their use," the new paper states.

Tests were conducted on randomly selected commercial laser devices labeled as Class IIIa or 3R and sold as suitable for demonstration use in classrooms and other public spaces. Such lasers are limited under the CFR to 5 milliwatts maximum emission in the visible portion of the spectrum and less than 2 milliwatts in the infrared portion of the spectrum. About half the devices tested emitted power levels at least twice the CFR limit at one or more wavelengths. The highest measured power output was 66.5 milliwatts, more than 10 times the legal limit. The power measurements were accurate to within 5 percent.

According to the American National Standards Institute (ANSI), laser devices that exceed 3R limits may be hazardous and should be subject to more rigorous controls such as training, to prevent injury.

Is a non-regulatory agency with decades of experience providing industry, research and military agencies with laser power measurements traceable to international standards. also has a history of innovation in devices for making such measurements. Technical staff from Laser Radiometry Project built the laser pointer test bed and collaborated with the Office of Safety, Health and Environment on the tests. has provided its data on laser pointer 1000mw power measurements to the Food and Drug Administration, which regulates laser product safety.

Green lasers generate green light from infrared light. Ideally, the device should be designed and manufactured to confine the infrared light within the laser housing. However, according to the new results, more than 75 percent of the devices tested emitted infrared light in excess of the CFR limit.

Laser Safety Officer Joshua Hadler designed the measurement test bed. The system consists of a laser power meter and two optical filters to quantify the emissions of different wavelengths of visible and infrared light. The power meter and filters were calibrated at. Lens holders ensure repeatable laser alignment, and an adjustable aperture contains the laser light around the output end of the laser.
"The measurement system is designed so that anyone can build it using off-the-shelf parts for about $2,000," Hadler says. "By relying on manufacturers' traceability to a national measurement institute such, someone could use this design to accurately measure power from a laser pointer."

California Man Walloped With 14-Year Sentence for Shining Laser at Helicopter

A federal judge ordered 26-year-old Sergio Rodriguez to spend the next 14 years in prison Monday for “lasing” a police helicopter as a national crackdown on people who point lasers at aircraft intensifies.

Rodriguez was arrested in 2012 and convicted in December 2013 of attempting to interfere with the operation of an aircraft, which comes with a maximum 20-year sentence. His girlfriend Jennifer Coleman, now 23, was convicted of pointing a powerful laser pointer at an aircraft, a federal crime established months before the Clovis, Calif., couple's arrest that's punishable by five years in prison. She will be sentenced May 12.

The 14-year sentence is one of the stiffest so far for “lasing” an aircraft.

Although it's unclear if an airplane or helicopter has crashed as a result of being laser pointer 1000mw flashed, pilots, the Federal Aviation Administration and the Federal Bureau of Investigation say the hand-held devices can temporarily blind pilots during landings and take-off, potentially causing a calamity.

The FBI announced in February a $10,000 reward for information leading to the arrest of people who amuse themselves by pointing inexpensive store-bought laser pointer at an aircraft. At least 3,960 laser attacks were reported in 2013, the bureau said, part of a multiyear upswing in incidents.

A laser pointer on a finger

Recently, in the famous website design unveiled the a new laser pointer, with simple style and comfortable use feeling, can effectively and stably display circle, point and line, and does not destroy the presentation of fluency. It is out of the traditional pointer design and is shaped into a stylish ring on the finger. Designers from the initial dot matrix laser pointer, and added a sliding button to help draw the circle and line. When the pointer is set on the index finger, the thumb can be used to slide the button on the ring. A circle, points, lines, and three options button, when to slide show circle, slide, the higher the larger circle; when down slide show lines, slide lower the longer the line; button placed intermediate time is displayed and the old section of the pointer as dots. In the course of the demonstration, the presenter can move their hands freely, which emphasizes the important area through the circle, the point and the line. With a new laser pointer, the presenter can be more focused on speech and presentation, rather than groping in the hands of a small tool, so that you will be handy in the speech.

Red light laser pointer 200mw structure is the most simple, the reason why simply because the red laser pointer is basically a battery powered by the diode. And a laser diode with the wavelength. Red laser appeared in the early 1980's, is a huge and bulky equipment worth hundreds of dollars; it is very small and very cheap.

The use of wavelength 808nm infrared laser pointer 1000mw to stimulate the nonlinear crystal, produce 1064nm infrared light, and then the second harmonic generation 532nm green light, which belongs to the solid laser. Some green lasers work in the pulse or quasi continuous mode to reduce the cooling problem, to extend the battery life. The announcement does not require frequency doubling of the green laser has a higher efficiency. In the night even the low power of the green light due to the atmospheric molecules of the Rayleigh scattering can also be seen, the laser pointer is often used by astronomy enthusiasts for pointing stars and constellations.

The market appears to have a wavelength of 593.5nm yellow light laser pointer 2000mw. By using DPSS technology to wavelength of two laser beams 1064nm and 1342nm through a nonlinear crystal phase. The complexity of the process makes the yellow laser pen unstable and low efficiency, with the change of temperature output power in the 1-10mW, if the overheating or too cold will occur mode jump. This is because the size of the laser pointer does not provide the required temperature stability and cooling components.

Laser pointer is the presentation of the most common one of the tools, however, are now using a laser pointer will have limitations, because the only point to a point, demonstration in the demonstration process often have to hold it to find a point to the location, waving a pointer to draw circles and lines will dry disturbing the audience's attention.

Irradiated with laser light mirror, the mirror will be laser reflection out?

There are no mirror reflectivity, the mirror is generally about 90%, optical instrument can reach about 97%; the rest is then is absorbed; we assumed that a laser pointer 1000mw effective radiated power, the active area to 1 mm2, with up to 97% if the specular reflectance of the reflected beam of light to, then there is a 30W energy is absorbed into the heat, you can imagine, the role of 30W of power in 1 mm2, only micron thickness reflective surface, even if it is used as a reflective silver material has been vaporized, laser will be blocked after penetrating look at the mirror.

http://ameblo.jp/szq95910/entry-12152438131.html

Or laser pointer 2000mw active area of ??1 mm2, up to 97% if the specular reflection rate to the reflected beam of light, then there is 60W energy is absorbed into heat. Conversely, if the power is small, or the effect of a larger area of ??the reflecting mirror or by other methods have higher thermal conductivity, the reflection effect can be sustained.

That is, the mirror is the first to be burned, or the light reflected off now? If the gun perpendicular to the laser mirror radiation, laser gun will be damaged it?

Mirrors have damage threshold, there is a possibility of being broken. For example, laser pointer 200mw using high damage threshold of the mirror, the laser can be reflected off. The light reflected back to the laser, then the mirror as the equivalent of a mirror, the laser resonator has changed. Lasers can add some inside isolator for preventing reflected laser damage crystals.

By adjusting the length of laser pointer the different ways of adjusting the first mirror. It is in the right hand side of the photo, so the mobile frame for the same number of the pictures on the left (the back of the body) or at the center. Please adjust the center of the inner hole of the inner sleeve of the laser light path to the mirror. If the level of the center, adjust the frame angle. Just a slight angle will make a big move. So, it slowly adjust. Please adjust as the center. The original position of the laser on the use of the software. When the second mirror is too far away, it may be too far from the center, so give it a go near distance once again in the middle area of the Y axis side. Right Y axis before irradiation treatment area. Back to the original position, if it is too far from the middle of the frame, the adjusted angle. A little time to fix the angle of the screw in the mirror. Move the Y axis to adjust it, so there is no slip before the process domain of the different ways and the original point of the position. At the same time, by adjusting the vertical axis sliding adjusted the mirror base for adjusting screw, even if it is moving in the horizontal direction, you can also adjust the level of the horizontal direction angle adjustment, if it is so, the first reflector including aluminum frame to move together, aluminum frame parallel.

Laser pointers - the eyesight of aircraft pilots

Wile pointing a laser beam at airplane cockpits can distract pilots, putting the crew and passengers at risk of harm, there is no evidence to suggest the beams can damage their eyesight. This is the conclusion of an editorial recently published in the British Journal of Ophthalmology.
[A red laser beam]
Laser pointers may not damage the eyesight of pilots, but they can distract them.
A laser pointer is a battery-powered, hand-held device - commonly in the form of a pen or key chain - that emits a low-powered laser beam.

In the US, the Food And Drug Administration (FDA) require that manufacturers limit the energy of laser for sale to 5 milliwatts (mW) or less.

While there are no specific laws for laser pointers in the UK, the country's Health Protection Agency recommend that the energy of laser pointers sold to the general public should be no more than 1 mW. Directing a laser pointer at an aircraft is illegal in both the US and UK, but it seems this does not deter some individuals from doing so.

According to the US Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), between January 1st and February 13th, 2016, there were 971 reports of laser pointers being directed at aircrafts - representing a 64% increase on 2015 figures for the same period.

And in the past 12 months, there have been more than 1,500 reports of laser pointers being directed at aircrafts in the UK. But how are pilots affected by laser pointers? Prof. John Marshall, of the Institute of Ophthalmology at University College London, UK, and colleagues outline the possible risks in a new editorial.

Aircraft height can not harm laser pilot's eyes

Aircraft height makes Ultra Powerful Laser Pointer 'incapable' of harming pilots' eyes
It is common knowledge that a laser pointer should not be directed into a person's eye; the radiation from the laser beam can cause damage to the retina, particularly if the beam is focused for prolonged periods.

However, in their editorial, Prof. Marshall and colleagues say that such damage can only occur at short range, noting that a laser beam shone from a long range - such as from the ground to an aircraft that is hundreds to thousands of meters in the sky - is "incapable" of causing irreversible harm to a pilot's eyesight.

They explain that the beam from a laser pointer has to pass through the atmosphere, as well as the pilot's windshield, in order to make direct contact with the eye. The authors note that there has only been one reported case of retinal damage to a pilot as a result of a laser pointer being directed at an aircraft.

The case referred to was reported in the journal Aerospace Medicine and Human Performance earlier this year, detailing how a male pilot suffered retinal laser burn after a blue laser beam was directed at his aircraft, which was around 1,300 ft (396 m) in the air.

Aircraft laser pointer - totally unacceptable

However, Prof. Marshall and colleagues brand the case as "suspect," primarily due to how far away the aircraft was from the ground, which they say would significantly reduce the laser's impact on the eye.

Prof. Marshall and colleagues believe the current safety limits for laser pointer pen best buy do not need to be changed, which is contrary to views that have been expressed in the media.

Instead, they say there needs to be more focus on educating the public on the potential risks associated with laser pointers.

The authors also note that there are some unscrupulous laser pointer manufacturers that are selling devices that emit energy of up to 1,000 mW, which greatly exceeds safety limits.

The European Commission have asked the relevant bodies to set specific standards of consumer laser products, which the authors say should enable unsafe products to be removed from sale.

"However, compliance by manufacturers will remain an issue," they add, "as will direct imports by the public purchasing unsafe laser products over the Internet."
