Not only was the popular Star Wars series premiered, there were a lot of laser products, including modern weapons using laser technology.

Not only was the popular Star Wars series premiered, there were a lot of laser products, including modern weapons using laser technology.

The Sword Light (also known as the laser sword) The Spyder III Pro Arctic is currently the most advanced handheld sword product made by Shanghai's Wicked Lasers Company since 2010, with a capacity of up to 1W, capable of transmitting a green light beam is 4,000 times brighter than 405nm violet laser. Spyder III Pro Arctic has appeared in many countries like England, Australia, .

According to News.sky (UK), Christine Heemskerk - leader of the product safety agency at the Institute of Commercial Standards (TSI) - said she should not sell the product to the public.

"We are very concerned about selling these products, so it should only be used in the industrial sector."

Being able to blind, burn and cause cancer, Hong Kong-based laser search company also admitted that "a laser appears in the airplane cockpit . also capable of returning into a disaster ".

John Colton laser safety researcher - Director of optical services company - answered News.sky that the laser beams "are extremely dangerous". "In any case, this product is not sold on the Internet," - he said.

Colton, who has produced a recent study on laser safety, says the laser beam has a power of 1W more than 1,000 times that of a conventional laser pointer. Laser swords can be "deadly" if exposed to motorists or even aircraft pilots, Colton added.

It can be said that people are thoroughly exploiting lasers for different purposes.

Currently, lasers are studied as a powerful weapon, widely used in the military.

- In 2005, the US government introduced a type of laser gun designed to blind the enemy troops without hurting them regularly.
