Hey guys, I was just thinking about the common products we see using lasers, and it seems like there's been a big shift. For the last few decades, the most common laser products on the market have been optical media devices (laserdisc, cd, dvd, blu-ray, etc), but it seems that they are really declining in popularity.
I know I hardly use my disc devices in favor of streaming and download services. This got me thinking about the laser products I'm still using frequently. Literally seems to just be the laser printer...
Of course, the internet is a laser product, but fiber networking doesn't make it into my house, so I can't count it. Most of the more exciting diodes are in high-end projectors, but I don't own one.
:thinking:
I guess I have to say my laser printer is my favorite laser product at the moment. It's at least reliable and easy on the toner. Very good to make PCBs as well.
If I had the money, one of these might take the cake: Best Sony 4K Ultra Short Throw Projector | LSPX-W1S | Sony US.
Maybe a POF home network if there's a bit more support.
So what are your favorite laser products?
