Reattaching detached retinas and using fiber optics to burn away ulcers in the stomach are just a couple of the medical uses of lasers. Once again, the laser's intense energy when focused makes it ideal for providing concentrated welding and cutting. Laser cutting and welding can be extremely precise. Clothing manufacturers can use lasers to cut precise fabric patterns. Laser welding can allow the easy welding of two different kinds of metals and alloys, making the resulting product significantly stronger than other techniques.
Many car manufacturers use laser welding performed by industrial robots to assemble vehicles.
Laser Shows The intense color of laser light has opened up a whole new world for laser artists to weave a new kind of art. Laser shows are usually performed in planetarium domes, and set to music ranging from new age to rock and roll. Sets of high-speed vibrating mirrors called scanners move the laser beams in different patterns. Abstract imagery or full-motion animation can be displayed in laser shows. Power Generation Laser-powered fusion holds hope of generating tremendous amounts of electricity through the use of lasers.
