Laser Safety
Notes
Laser Light is different from any other light sources with which you may be familiar. The
light from this product can potentially cause eye injury if not set up and used properly.
Laser light is thousands of times more concentrated than light from any other kind of light
source. This concentration of light can cause instant eye injuries, primarily by burning the
retina (the light sensitive portion at the back of the eye). Even if you cannot feel "heat"
from a laser beam, it can still potentially injure or blind you or your audience. Even very
small amounts of laser light are potentially hazardous even at long distances. Laser eye
injuries can happen quicker than you can blink.
It is incorrect to think that because these laser entertainment products split the laser into
hundreds of beams that the laser beam is scanned out in high speed, that an individual
laser beam is safe for eye exposure. This laser product uses dozens of milliwatts of laser
power (Class 3B levels internally) before it splits into multiple beams (Class 3R levels).
Many of the individual beams are potentially hazardous to the eyes.
It is also incorrect to assume that because the laser light is moving, it is safe. This is not
true. Nor, do the laser beams always move. Since eye injuries can occur instantly, it is
critical to prevent the possibility of any direct eye exposure. In the laser safety regulation,
it is not legal to aim Class 3R lasers in areas which people can get exposed. This is true
even if it is aimed below people's faces, such as on a dance floor.
