  RE: Laser Module for Mindstorms is Here!
 
I don't know what the frequency response for a cat eye looks like but most of these laser pointers will fry a human eye if directed into it without us realizing it. The main problem is that the frequency of the pointer is on the fringe of what we (...) (25 years ago, 30-Nov-99, to lugnet.robotics)
