Eyesafe Laser Burner is a compact 1kW single mode LWIR laser designed for remote burning of debris at hard to access and dangerous locations including cleaning of high voltage lines, high communication antennas, bridges from plastic sheets and wires, and trimming / cutting branches of high trees along railways and likes. 

The laser includes a 400 mm diameter reflective telescope, focusing, tracking and steering optics. The laser is accomplished with a compact laser driver and a chiller. The laser is mounted on a precise 2 axis tracking stage for rotation of the laser towards and along the debris.   

High power LWIR laser has low absorption in atmosphere, and it is less sensitive to atmosphere turbulence at the long distances. It has good absorption in materials of the targets. As a result, the LWIR laser burner is more effective than a common NIR fiber laser burner. Important factor is that LWIR radiation is significantly less dangerous for eyes compared to NIR fiber laser 

The laser burner prototype is live tested to burn plastics sheets, ballons and rubber at distance of up to 1000 meters in conditions of high humidity. That makes it superior to common NIR fiber laser burners.
