Optical laser free beam path
Optical laser free beam path
The DLR Institute of Technical Physics is investigating the effects of realistic environmental conditions on the propagation and effectiveness of laser beams. Researchers are testing the use of different lasers over long distances on a 130-metre optical free-beam path at DLR’s Lampoldshausen site. One focus of this research is the possibility of detecting hazardous substances from a distance with the use of a laser, referred to as stand-off detection.
