| Title: |
Laser Projector Safety Monitoring System |
| Abstract: |
An apparatus and method for a laser light projector, including a laser
beam generated by a laser light source; a scanner associated with the
laser light source and having one or more moving mirrors capable of
scanning the laser beam along X-Y coordinates; a power meter positioned
for quantifying the laser beam's power in real time; a fault detector
operably connected in the laser light projector to detect a fault
condition and automatically generate a fault signal in response thereto;
a modulator responsive to the fault signal for reducing power in the
laser beam; and a fault shutter operably associated with the laser light
source and responsive to the fault signal so as to shut off the laser
beam.
