Microvision's current pico projection engine uses red and blue laser diodes and a frequency-doubled "synthetic" greenlaser to create a full color image.
Adam Gardenhire deliberately pointed the commercial grade greenlaser at a private Cessna Citation that was landing at the Burbank Bob Hope Airport in California on March 29, 2012.
Standout pieces included a suede quilted lamb vest, a spruce-green fairisle shawl collar sweater and wool herringbone striped trousers (above) and a laser quilted bomber vest with charcol trousers (left).
The FAA attributes the massive increase in incidents to laser pointers being more widely available online, stronger power levels, and an increase in green lasers which are easier to see, as well as better reporting of the incidents by pilots.
