Abstract

A laser-based area-denial system includes a dual-wavelength laser emitter having a first laser configured to emit a first laser beam having a wavelength in the Infrared range, a second laser configured to emit a second laser beam having a wavelength in the visible range, and an adjustable focus pattern cap, and a sensor configured to deliver a deterrent stimulus in response to the first laser beam.

Claims (30)

1 . A focus-adjustable laser-based area-denial system, comprising:

a dual-wavelength laser emitter comprising:

a first laser configured to emit a first laser beam having a wavelength in the Infrared range;

a second laser configured to emit a second laser beam having a wavelength in the visible range;

a microcontroller having a processing unit, a memory, and a wireless communications module configured to control the first laser and the second laser; and

an optical path assembly; and

a collar-mounted sensor comprising:

a collar; and

a sensor-controller configured to couple to the collar and having a sensor processing unit, a sensor memory, a sensor wireless communications module, and a stimulus module configured to be controlled by the sensor processing unit and deliver a deterrent stimulus in response to the first laser beam;

wherein the optical path assembly is a slide-adjustable optical path assembly.

2 . A focus-adjustable laser-based area-denial system, comprising:

a dual-wavelength laser emitter comprising:

a first laser configured to emit a first laser beam having a wavelength in the Infrared range;

a second laser configured to emit a second laser beam having a wavelength in the visible range;

a microcontroller having a processing unit, a memory, and a wireless communications module configured to control the first laser and the second laser; and

an optical path assembly; and

a collar-mounted sensor comprising:

a collar; and

a sensor-controller configured to couple to the collar and having a sensor processing unit, a sensor memory, a sensor wireless communications module, and a stimulus module configured to be controlled by the sensor processing unit and deliver a deterrent stimulus in response to the first laser beam;

wherein the optical path assembly is a flip-adjustable optical path assembly.

3 . A focus-adjustable laser-based area-denial system, comprising:

a dual-wavelength laser emitter comprising:

a first laser configured to emit a first laser beam having a wavelength in the Infrared range;

a second laser configured to emit a second laser beam having a wavelength in the visible range;

a microcontroller having a processing unit, a memory, and a wireless communications module configured to control the first laser and the second laser; and

an optical path assembly; and

a collar-mounted sensor comprising:

a collar; and

a sensor-controller configured to couple to the collar and having a sensor processing unit, a sensor memory, a sensor wireless communications module, and a stimulus module configured to be controlled by the sensor processing unit and deliver a deterrent stimulus in response to the first laser beam;

wherein the optical path assembly is an independently adjustable optical path assembly.
