Abstract:
1. A compact high power laser dazzling device comprises: at least one heat sink; a plurality of laser resonators, each of the laser resonators extending axially from a first end, fixedly mounted to the at least one heat sink, to a second end, the second end of each laser resonator emitting an individual laser beam along a light path; an optical head disposed adjacent to the second ends of the laser resonators, the optical head including an optical transmission assembly optically directing the individual laser beams of the laser resonators to define a region of overlap at a remote point a predetermined distance from the optical head; and a laser beam intensity adjuster assembly disposed at an output end of the optical head, the laser beam intensity adjuster assembly including: wherein the optical head defines an axis and the front face is rotatable with respect to the axis of the optical head, from a first position to a second position, wherein the at least one of the apertures having the optically clear window element or no optical element mounted therein is aligned in the light oath of a one of the individual laser beams when the front face is in the first position and the at least one of the apertures having the holographic diffuser mounted therein is aligned in the light path of one of the individual laser beams when the front face is in the second position.
