  2. Cat repeller - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cat_repeller

    These laser-aiming devices can be targeted at cats and activated by a trigger. They will send out an ultrasonic noise directed where aimed. Professor Timothy Leighton [ 7 ] from the Institute of Sound and Vibration Research, [ 8 ] has expressed concern about the recent growth in commercial products which exploit the discomforting effects of in ...

  3. Sound amplification by stimulated emission of radiation

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sound_amplification_by...

    Sound (or lattice vibration) can be described by a phonon just as light can be considered as photons, and therefore one can state that SASER is the acoustic analogue of the laser. [ citation needed ] In a SASER device, a source (e.g., an electric field as a pump) produces sound waves (lattice vibrations, phonons) that travel through an active ...

  4. Active noise control - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Active_noise_control

    Sound is captured from the microphone(s) furthest from the mouth (the noise signal(s)) and from the one closest to the mouth (the desired signal). The signals are processed to cancel the noise from the desired signal, producing improved voice sound quality. In some cases, noise can be controlled by employing active vibration control. This ...

  5. Laser - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Laser

    A laser normally produces a very narrow beam of light in a single wavelength, in this case, green. Photons, the quanta of electromagnetic radiation, are released and absorbed from energy levels in atoms and molecules. In a lightbulb or a star, the energy is emitted from many different levels giving photons with a broad range of energies.

  7. Laser pointer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Laser_pointer

    Red (635 nm), blueish violet (445 nm), and green (520 nm) laser pointers. 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.

    The lyrebird is an Australian species best known for its ability to mimic man-made sounds. National Geographic has recorded these remarkable birds mimicking such unnatural noises as a chainsaw and ...

  9. List of laser types - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_laser_types

    Laser types with distinct laser lines are shown above the wavelength bar, while below are shown lasers that can emit in a wavelength range. The height of the lines and bars gives an indication of the maximal power/pulse energy commercially available, while the color codifies the type of laser material (see the figure description for details).
