In general solid propellants are initiated by pyrotechnic igniters and the practical development of a direct laser initiation system for rocket or gun propellants is not considered a possibility in the short term. A laser light show can turn the smoky gaps between fireworks bursts into a full, continuous story—especially on big nights like July 4th. Done right, the result is clean, layered, and unforgettable. What if you position fireworks in a big plot of land at wide distances, and then use a powerful laser pointer to set them off from a distance? And to make it more fun, attach the laser pointer to an airsoft rifle with a long range scope so you can properly aim for the wick. Has anyone here tried. Laser guided firecracker #experiment #scienceproject #crackers Hello friends, In this video we have explained how to make a laser guided firecracker. Laser diode should be used inside a piece. If you have 100 mw you can light gunpowder, it may take a bit of aiming but I have done it with 50 mw, you can get aixiz modules for around $4 each shipped by aixiz. and I would suggest a microboost drive or a flexdrive for a few more bucks.
