Blip The US Navy has released a video showing a a battleship-mounted laser weapon destroying a drone mid-flight.

A single laser beam has been used to transfer 26 terabits of data in one second by researchers at the Karlsruhe Institute of Technology in Germany.

Is there anything lasers can't do? It's beginning to look unlikely, with researchers having now calculated the conditions under which a laser could act as a tractor beam.

Lasers, eh? They get around. When they're not repelling pirates or recycling old TVs, they're blinding ravers and reducing things to small piles of dust.

A Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) professor has invented a new digital camera that can see around corners.

Probably not, according to its Georgia Tech inventors

Scientists at Purdue University in Indiana have created 'spaser-based nanolasers', spheres 44 nanometers, or billionths of a meter, in diameter.

An ultra-powerful laser can turn regular incandescent light bulbs into power efficient illuminators, say optics researchers at the University of Rochester, New York.

Laser Energetics announced today that it has began rolling out new Dazer Laser Light Fighting Technologies, non-lethal laser weapons that can temporarily blind people at up to 2400 metres.
