Active laser protection system
First Claim
1. An active Laser Protection System device comprising:
- at least one laser detection means;
at least one microprocessor;
at least one liquid crystal display;
at least one laser detection communication means in electronic communication with the laser detection means and the microprocessor such that when the laser detection means detects a laser light the laser detection communication means then communicates all available data regarding the laser light from the laser detection means to the microprocessor and then the microprocessor processes the data being communicated from the laser detection means; and
at least one liquid crystal display communication means in electronic communication with the microprocessor and the liquid crystal such that when the laser detection means detects a laser light and the microprocessor has processed the data from the laser detection means the microprocessor activates the liquid crystal display in response thereto by communicating with the liquid crystal display by means of the liquid crystal display communication means.

Abstract
This invention relates to an active Laser Protection System (LPS) system specifically designed to provide a device that automatically adjusts a protection panel of the device in response to laser light exposure thus preventing a user from being exposed to damaging laser light. In one embodiment the LPS system utilizes a light weight portable goggle type eyewear. In yet another embodiment the LPS system is comprised of contact lenses worn by the user. The LPS system may be used in all light transmissive surfaces where the penetration of laser light is not desired, such as aircraft, spacecraft, vessel, train, and automotive windshields, etc. The LPS system may also be utilized as a replacement window for structures where laser light penetration is undesired. The protection panels utilize Liquid Crystal Displays (LCD) that are activated by laser sensors by means of a microprocessor and power supply means. The device also automatically replaces non-laser visible light that may be blocked because the light was of the same wavelength as the blocked light by projecting that light by means of activating the LCD accordingly by means of the microprocessor.
