      The lasers I’m working on and other lasers like them can be used in loads of different places. They can be used in:

      – laser eye surgery to improve peoples vision
      – they are used in DVD players to read the information of a disk
      – they can be used for high powered lights
      – they are used in computer mice (check the one you’re using now!)
      – laser guidance systems in missiles
      – laser cutting and welding
      – barcode readers

      And that’s just all the ones I can think of now, there’s loads more!
