• Question: Will people be able to access their own laser beam type devices in the future? If so, what uses would they have? Thanks!

      You can already buy home-use IPL systems in Boots, which are used in the same way as skin laser treatments (although it isn’t actually a laser). The same people who have developed this are currently developing a home use laser system.

      If you have enough money, there is nothing stopping you buying any laser and using it just like we do.

      True. There are also disco light systems with lasers in them to make pretty patterns on the wall, and of course CD players.
