It's a 60mW green laser, which can blind youand burn skin. Hence, it's illegal in many places.

That was pretty damn cool though, I love that they painted one of the mooninites on the building!


EDIT- upon further reading, all one has to do is adjust the hue point and you can use a red laser. Which is much safer and cheaper. It just doesn't show up as well as the green.

Now, who has a few thousand bucks I can have so I can give this a shot?

I think you almost have to use a green laser or any laser powerful enough so that you can actually see the laser in mid-air. It would be damn hard to draw on building bout a 1/4mile away from you with out that.

Anyone can buy those lasers.. I wonder what would happen if someone caught you with one though?

If you read through the site, they say you can use any laser. So long as the hue can be adjusted on the camera. The green was used simply because it shows up better.
