| Title: |
Special Effects System for Generating a Midair Laser Blast Illusion |
| Abstract: |
A special effects apparatus for generating an illusion of a moving beam
of light in midair. The apparatus includes a light source, such as a
laser light source outputting colored light, generating a beam of light
that is aimed along a linear light travel path. The apparatus further
includes a dynamic light receiving assembly, and this assembly includes:
an elongated support rod; a light receiving element attached to a first
end of the support rod; and a driver coupled to a second end of the
support rod opposite the first end of the support rod. The driver rotates
the support rod about the second end at a high rotation rate, and the
light receiving element moves along an arcuate travel path that
intersects the linear light travel path of the beam of light. The arcuate
travel path of the light receiving element and the linear light travel
path are coplanar.
