Quote from someone: "Wow. I want to see a black or brown laser!!" Rolling Eyes

Then they normally question why this pen-sized laser can't go through the wall...

A black laser would be invisible, and a brown....

That hasn't been made yet.

If you had a diode that gave of more than one wavelengh like 650nm and 473nm then youd get purple and by combining many colours could be possible!

LEDs are a fairly good color reference. Monitors, on the other hand do a terrible job of rendering pure colors, but the human visual system is so forgiving and adaptive, you really have no idea how bad it is until you put that spectrum up on the monitor and then shine your laser(s) on it (being careful of reflections, of course!)

Well.. I wouldn't say LED's are THAT good a reference... try this, if there is a green LED on your compy, shine your laser next to it. It'll turn a bland yellow.

But anyways, the purple laser WOULD be fun, bunches of things would show some interesting florescence!

here's a better chart...




As you see, the sonar wouldn't be too visible... though I do think it would be more visible than that!



I compare sensitive of lasers. It seems that blue laser isnīt so bright to eye than red laser. Has aanyone pictures of comparing 15mW blue and 15mW red

Blue is definitely much more visible than red, if you're comparing 473nm to 650 or 660nm. The 473 and 488nm blues I have can actually compete with 532nm a bit, whereas the reds are completely beamless without a good amount of fog. Scotopic vision might play into this a little bit, though I'm not sure on that.

The simple answer: the SONAR is a purple laser!

It is very much near UV that it reacts to light much like blacklight would. So if you put it on a while wall/paper/shirt/etc... it would glow blue, on a fluorescent pen it would glow like a blacklight would, and it would make glow in the dark things glow infront of you. Although, it is VERY important to note that the beam through smoke, fog, or anything is purple! I have pictures up and they seem half purplish and half blue. That is simply because a non-DSLR camera doesn't have that great of a capturing ability to make bluray really look real!

BluRay is purple, not blue... far from it.

Actually the sonar is not BLUE or PURPLE its VIOLET as has been explaind loads of times on LC and has been metiond in this thread too by RR.

and on a white wall it looks Violet not blue. and yes its very very hard to get pics of the sonar beam tht are like real life and how the eyes see it.
but it is definitly violet.
