  2. Laser tracker - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Laser_tracker

    The accuracy of laser trackers is of the order of 0.025 mm over a distance of several metres. [1] Some examples of laser tracker applications are to align aircraft wings during assembly [2] and to align large machine tools. [3] To take measurements the technician first sets up a laser tracker on a tripod with an unobstructed view of the object ...

  3. Laser level - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Laser_level

    The concept of a laser level has been around since at least the early 1970s, [2] the original spinning-mirror design laser plane and line level was patented by the late 1980s, [3] and the compact lens-based laser line level (as produced by many tool manufacturers today) was patented in the late 1990s. It was invented by Oscar Soliz in the late ...

  4. Laser line level - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Laser_line_level

    A laser line level is a tool combining a spirit level and/or plumb bob with a laser to display an accurately horizontal or vertical illuminated line on a surface the laser line level is laid against. Laser line levels are used wherever accurate verticals and horizontals are required, typically in the construction and cabinetry industries.

  5. Wheel alignment - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wheel_alignment

    There are several types of wheel alignment equipment systems, and each operate in different ways. [3] Laser-Based Systems: The Traditional Approach. Laser alignment systems represent a more traditional approach. These systems utilise fixed heads attached simply to, or hung from each wheel, projecting laser beams to measure angles and positions.

  6. Optical tweezers - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Optical_tweezers

    But an unfocused laser still causes a force pointing away from the laser. Ray optics explanation (focused laser). In addition to keeping the bead in the center of the laser, a focused laser also keeps the bead in a fixed axial position: The momentum change of the focused rays causes a force towards the laser focus, both when the bead is in ...

  7. Laser guidance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Laser_guidance

    Laser guidance is used by military to guide a missile or other projectile or vehicle to a target by means of a laser beam, either beam riding guidance or semi-active laser homing (SALH). [7] With this technique, a laser is kept pointed at the target and the laser radiation bounces off the target and is scattered in all directions (this is known ...

  8. Augmented reality - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Augmented_reality

    The Generation-4 Glass [82] (Laser EyeTap) is similar to the VRD (i.e. it uses a computer-controlled laser light source) except that it also has infinite depth of focus and causes the eye itself to, in effect, function as both a camera and a display by way of exact alignment with the eye and resynthesis (in laser light) of rays of light ...

  9. Laser TV - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Laser_TV

    Laser color television (laser TV), or laser color video display, is a type of television that utilizes two or more individually modulated optical (laser) rays of different colors to produce a combined spot that is scanned and projected across the image plane by a polygon-mirror system or less effectively by optoelectronic means to produce a color-television display.
