How Do You Deflect A Laser Beam?
Typically, a laser beam will only go in a completely straight path. While this is useful for most cases, there may come a time when you need to bend the laser so that it reaches another area that it can’t reach straight on. Fortunately, there is a method you can use that involves deflecting the laser beam so that it can reach the area that it needs to hit. Place the mirrored surface directly in the way of your laser’s line of fire. You will now notice that the surface is deflecting the laser’s path. Position the mirrored surface so that the laser’s path is heading in the area you desire it to go. Deflect the laser any number of times you wish up to its maximum range by using additional reflective objects.
