If you recover from breathing the very toxic fumes from engraving the none safe plastic as shown in the video. If you want to engrave with a laser buy a safe one in a propper enclosure as bdf2718 alludes to.
You're seriously like the most humble and polite RUclipsr ever. I hardly even noticed that you were probably promoting wicked lasers and your appreciation is quite clearly genuine.
Yep, I did follow the fumes, making sure they drifted away from me (and aired out the room afterwards). Never smelt it, which is a good sign :) Thanks for watching!
I think firing a laser into a cows eye, obviously a dead cow, would show people the damage they do so ensure people will most definitely not look at lasers!
They idea would be to fire a laser at the eye(s) for periods of time then dissect them later to see the potential damage they could cause if someone opted to mess around or be neglectful around laser!!
Jennifer - Nobody said 'crow' and nor should you jump to conclusions either. As for cow, if that's what you mean, a cows eye is a nice big thing to cut open and put under a microscope showing people. We also eat a shit load of beef that means a lot of eyes are no longer needed and using them for science is a worthy cause!!
That's a very impressive bit of kit! I did have to laugh, it's half the size of my first laser, which was not only a pitiful 20mW red only, but also a gas discharge tube so required a 4KV strike voltage and mains cable!
Yep, I love living in Denmark :) Regulations on laser pointers were tightened some years ago in many countries (due to people acting stupid with powerful laser pointers), so they stopped shipping laser pointers to these countries to avoid getting them confiscated.

Great presentation. I want one! Seeing the purple dot reflecting back to the camera, I am reminded by Photonicinductions earlier videos that had three purple dots burned into the sensor by one of his laser "experiments" I miss that guy.. I hope he has found peace.
Scanners are overdriven and probably not true 20k, but it is impressive that they managed to cram everything into that small case. My projectors is at least 5 times the size and doesn't have a battery. Don't know how many viewers you have in the U.S., but you also may want to mention that a variance is required in the states.
Thanks for the fun and informative video! I know next to nothing about this stuff but it has LONG been a dream of mine to have a laser display audio reactive Lissajous curves, kind of to use the laser as an x/y oscilloscope. Will have to look at the website more, but it seems like its getting closer! Thanks!
Did you move the camera at 5:20 intentionally around so it won't burn the lense due to reflections? There was a bright reflection dot visible all the time.
Exactly. I didn't use my main camera, since I was worried about burning pixels on the camera's sensor. By using a gimbal-mounted smartphone and constantly moving it, the risk of burned pixels is much lower and less expensive to replace should it happen anyway... But no burned pixels luckily. It is afterall a black case with less reflection :) Thanks for watching!
FBI: we need backup!! The viking has gold hold of a LASER! Brainiac75: STOP CALLING IT THAT! ITS light amplification by stimulated emission of radiation!! Brainiac75: *Proceeds to destroy the world*
I'd love to watch such a unit create a show that's synched with my fave tunes! Just have to create one that draws splats. Cue the Double Dare theme song!
saw a product much like this (maybe even this company) at an expo at my old factory workplace here in denmark. some of the demo looked alot like what they used. but they made a dedicated video with lasers and music :P it was soooo cool! :D
Does it have software to choreograph multiple image-objects independently to music? What is the step response of the scanners? I built a system in the 80's to do all that.
So good to see a recent new video from you! Look forward to some more future cool projects....the magnet experiments are still my favorites. Take care friend!
Yeah, show lasers are similar to fireworks. Watching it on video just isn't as pleasing as watching it in real life. But I hope I managed to catch a glimpse of how great it looks in person. Thanks for watching!
Where did you get the lens for burn? I cannot find where to buy it. I also have the LaserCube, but it didn't come with that... It was an option when I bought my LD2000 from WickedLasers, not an after purchase option.... Any info would be great. Great review! Nice. What camera are you using? I see the lights on so it doesn't get washed out. I also use a ND filters (ND8 or ND16) which helps with lights off.
This is one of those things that seems really cool but also kinda dangerous. Also... How do you deal with safety glasses when you've got 3 lasers at completely different wavelengths involved?
@@TheAechBomb "the laser isn't super powerful" . Yes it is, he says in the video "this is a class 4 laser, the highest class laser there is". It burns into a CD case. You're thinking of the projection, it is safe to look at the projection, but if you look at the laser it will damage your eyes.
@@iaincowell9747 yeah, you don't look directly into the beam, or point it at any reflective surface when at full power only the high-power 'popping' or 'burning' mode uses full power, I wouldn't worry if you're not using it on full power
i remember that kickstarter. it was a dumb idea....so I guess they scrapped the laser engraver cube plans? .... its neat to see a well made video going into a technical test of it though.
I believe a lot of modern laser projectors use a combination of dichroic mirrors and phosphors to generate RGB light from a single blue laser source. It's the closest thing I can think of to real alchemy.
at 2:50 you show the lens reflecting light from the laser, but might that be an effect due to the refraction? and therefore if you keep the lens perpendicular to the laser, no light is lost?
It might add to the effect loss of the uncoated lens, that I hold it at an angle. But the measurement shows that even with the lens perpendicular to the laser, around 128 mW was lost with the lens. That's significant... Thanks for watching!
The planetarium laser bench I worked with had a 10W mixed gas white laser that we could only bring to just over 6W... anymore power and a slow trace from the main beam (which is only half of the laser output) would vaporize the white paint on the inner dome !!
i've seen a video of someone videotaping a laser tattoo removal. the laser reflections off the skin that hit the camera sensor burned individual pixels on the camera sensor. at what strength laser would you guess that can happen? as i see your camera doesn't suffer damage from taping those lasers. or do you have some filters in front of the camera to prevent this from happening?
When will the laser cube be launched to buy? I'm interested in the rgb possibilities and the size for shows. What is the scanner speed of the lasercube ?
For my recent videos, this was one of the funniest to make. I still enjoy playing with weak laser pointers but this show laser is just on a completely other play level :) Cheers back from a fellow Nordic from Jylland!
Looks like laser works for much longer when doing a drawing, can't you set it up to make a filled circle or something like that so you can measure the laser for longer?
But how did they make the device project shapes on the wall? I think they did it by quickly moving the lasers (as motion blur or something on the eye makes it look like a line).
litterally doing wicked ass designs in your home brew construction got crazy easy. Just have this cube engrave into pieces if your project. As always make sure to maintain basic fire safety as this laser CAN state fires obviously.
You always watch my videos very quickly after upload. It's really appreciated but I'm not recommending ditching guests for one of my videos... It can wait a bit ;) Thanks for watching, Indra!
WOW. Really nice. It's like the deathstar :-) I have a 3W handheld laser as my strongest. But this is much more fun. BTW a really interesting video and nerdy :-)
I'm curious about the final price too. It should be a little less than the LaserDock, but probably not much, since it's more difficult to cram all this into a smaller enclosure, and the LaserDock does not have a rechargeable battery. The LaserCube should be released 'soon'. I will update the description box as soon as I get more info. Thanks for watching!
Nice. Looks like Wicked got their crap together. When I first got into lasers they were a joke of a company. I really need to get a decent DAC for my laser projector sometime soon. I'd like to get a new PJ sometimes as the cheap one I have now is well, cheap.
...now imagine having this on a bigger scale like...oooh let's say a heliostat setup! (solar power tower) Instead of collecting sunlight on the mirrors, you control the laser streams and bounced them into one focused powerful beam. This could be use for multipurpose like.. energy capture or...yes, redirecting a straight beam out to space(weaponize/asteroids etc...)
