Abstract
A non-lethal laser-based disorientation system comprises a laser light source which generates visible laser light at one or more predetermined wavelengths. When directed by an operator at an opponent whose vision is unprotected, the light disorients and/or dazzles the opponent. The system also includes an eye protection system which substantially blocks light at the predetermined wavelengths, while being substantially transparent to visible light at other wavelengths. The light source is arranged such that the fluence of the generated light does not cause permanent damage to the opponent's eyes. The generated laser light is scanned and/or diverged, to cover a large field of view, as well as to limit the light's fluence. The eye protection system preferably comprises goggles worn by an operator and associated personnel, the lenses of which have an optical coating designed to block the predetermined wavelengths while being substantially transparent to visible light at other wavelengths.
