When I was a kid, around 12 or 13 years old, I got super into lasers. This was in the early 1990s, so access to lasers at home was pretty limited. My dad supported my desire to learn more about lasers and we acquired a He-Ne gas laser, and a power supply to run it. Built a wooden box and everything to contain it. Was a class 3a 5mW and we were super careful with where we pointed it and how we interacted around it. All that said, the ease of access to utterly eye destroying, burn your house down, solid state laser diodes is both amazing, and scares the crap out of me. I am keenly aware of just how much even the slightest slip up in safety routines could leave you with permanent eye damage, or worse. Glad to see you emphasizing the safety aspect of your insanely powerful laser setup. It was seriously impressive!

There are a number of inherent flaws in this marketing report. Targeting and tracking in milli-seconds' refers only to initial electronic 'lock'. Iron Beam maximum effective range is limited by accuracy _and minimum effective range is limited by pivot gimbaling._ All 'testing'(sic) is gamed to only optimal range and linear constant velocity targets, the same way they gamed Patriot EKV and gamed Iron Dome. They (the latter two kinetics) can't hit Russia's zigzaging missiles, for example. Second, Iron Beam has a huge flaw. Ordinary titanium white ceramic roof coating is one solid defense incoming small profile, and a 6-micron coat of gold makes them impervious as fly-over-and-drop. That's why Reagan's 1985 Space-Based Lasers never deployed, and honestly, rocket scientists back then _knew_ it would never deploy. _Not ONE of the Star Wars programs ever did._ (It was Pentagon weapons technology welfare bridge, while DoD RIF'd the military vets and the vested lifers.) They're _still_ trying to make Hypersonic Space Plane work, 40 years of wasted R&D later. Raytheon is going back to old standbys: smart-bombs with 'shoot-and-scoot GPS tailfins. The moment Iron Beam fires, the spy satellite will acquire the target, pass it to loitering stealth. F-35s and a hypersonic payload will be arcing down. Zzzzt! Poof! Zzzzt! Poof! Look! What's that up in the sky? Is it a bird? Is it a plane! It's a GPS 2000-pound Super KABLOOEY!

The hard part is the bit you did manually with drawing the box. Raytheon gets the big bucks for their tech that does target identification and classification. They also bring institutional knowledge related to second-of-angle precision and, if I am not mistaken, some dynamic optics to limit beam scatter. As with most engineering problems, the proof of concept is easy and the devil is in the details/refinements.

You’d be much better off with a galvo-based system. Far faster at tracking. I’d also put a dichroic beam splitter in the optical path so the camera and laser can be perfectly coaxial, though having a pair of cameras on either side would work with some software tweaks (and would allow some rangefinding).

Love your research, content, safety/morality concerns, never failing to deliver real world demonstrations. Back in the '80s, I tried pushing a 5 watt SP165 ion Argon beam into a 100 micron quartz fiber, with a parabolic refractive index to deliver a scannable beam to scanning heads located in lighting trusses to avoid lifting the entire projection system onto a 10' scaffolding tower. But, resorted to using glycerol encapsulated inside a tube, between the input lens and fiber to avoid burning the fiber. Furthermore, there was no specific focal point at the output end to allow a low divergent, scannable beam. Of course today's diode laser projectors are accomplishing the same objective. The power efficiency of modern fiber lasers and what you've just demonstrated blows my mind. "Eat your heart out, Styropyro." 🤣L😅M🙃A😂O! Happy New Year, Planters. 😎

Look at the billion dollar companies putting tens of millions into research and it should be pretty obvious that the quick, easy inventions are a thing of the past.

A quick observation on safety: I would not recommend the glasses style eyepro that you're wearing. Particualrly when you're having to bend over with the laser on, there is a significant risk of reflected light entering through the gaps around the edges. The goggles style eyepro that your assistant is wearing, that clamps to the face all around, is much better. I would also be wary of the amount of cardboard that is within the vicinity. Otherwise, a very engaging and well presented video. I would be interested to see you covering the topic in more detail, particularly the technical challenges that make something effective not quite so 'easy'.

I might be missing something. Wouldn't a simple reflective surface totally negate the effect of rocket-targeting lasers? Like, if you want to circumvent the fancy iron beam laser, just wrap the rockets in tinfoil?

That can help, but pulsed and multi wavelength lasers will easily burn through metal.

This suggests an infrared laser would not even notice such camouflage around the target...

I live in NM and about 30 miles away is a facility called High-Energy Laser Test Facility (HELSTF). They have been doing R&D for many decades out there. I had the opportunity to tour some of the facility about 20 years ago and it was amazing. They had a very large steel disc that was probably 2 foot thick that they blasted a hole into in a very short period of time (under a second if I remember correctly but I could be wrong since its been so long). That was decades ago so I wonder what they can do now. Great video as usual!

This is why Tesla came up with the idea of "the halo" of aurora towers and directed energy weapons. He wanted to make war obsolete by simultaneously giving everyone a 250km dome of directed energy defense that wirelessly supplied any device in that same service range with power. And since he was right about everything, including the fact that the Ionosphere is conductive, he probably would have succeeded in releasing that technology to the world. People who have what they need and feel safe aren't trying to start wars. Can't fault the man's logic. Just wish he had another few years in him to head off all the catastrophic psychopaths that perverted his technology into the very yolk he'd spent his entire life trying to remove from the average man.

Sure, but a q-switched ir laser is best for that because it can thermally destroy moquitos but it is also safer to use deep ir i.e. past 1064nm so that the radiation doesn't destroy the retina in case of system fault
