Sounds like the hardware side wouldn't be hard for this crowd.

That would be a cool addition to anyone's light show!

Here's a link to the hardware portion of the project ...

It's still a little too hacky for my liking, but surely someone will figure out how to build this in a more elegant form.

I love to watch, but i don't think i want to be responsible for an unattended laser in my yard...
Most people have a sense of being careful around electricy - not so much with lasers...

I agree and I don't think that RJ would want to take on that responsibility either. That's all this site needs is someone suing it becasue their child was injured by a laser from a kit sold from here. That would be the end of DIY.

Ill be using a 4 laser projector for christmas, but its store bought. Im thinking of adding a blanker with a motion sensor so if someone walkes in front of it the blanker goes down and shuts the light off, i just need to make the circuitry.

Although, ive got a chauvet laser unit that i received off ebay for almost nothing, the laser was out and i bought a new one for it. I might be able to get it to work right as a show of how to do one.

Wow that is pretty neat.

There is also an apparent rise in the amount of reports of pilots being blinded by lasers whether they be laser pointers or whatever. I would think based on the negative publicity alone, if you had a laser on your front lawn it wouldn't be long before someone of authority would "swing by" and pay you a visit. It's a real shame too, because you can do alot of awesome stuff with lasers, not just vector graphics, you could get into holography etc..
