A movie closely attached to the self-stated 'mad scientist' that creates an ultra-powerful laser cannon with DIY

Speaking of the laser cannon is felt as if it is a science fiction work or the most advanced military technology, but individuals can also make their own laser cannon if they like that. A movie closely related to such "a person who is doing a powerful laser cannon" is released on YouTube.

This Pyro Makes the Strongest DIY Lasers In the World Out of Old Tech


Laser light floating in the dark.

"It was at the age of 14 when I first made a laser cannon ..." ...

It is Drake Anthony of YouTuber of the science system which manages the YouTube channel " styropyro ".

A movie posted to styropyro is a thing that DIY laser cannon and performs various experiments and tests the power.

Anthony's own laser cannon can easily burn paper or burst black balloon.

Anthony lives in the town of Goodfield in Illinois located in the Midwest of the United States.

Anthony seems to like video games in addition to making laser cannon ... ...

Especially my favorite is " moth ( Ga ) ".

"Moths will be attracted to the light, Anthony is laughing with jokes," I like lasers and the moths that like light like light are similar in spirituality. "

It seems that I really like ga to see how to stick the moth to the face without hesitation.

Anthony, 25 years old, self-named himself a "professional mad scientist."

The total number of movies posted to styropyro exceeds 100 million times, nearly 500,000 people are subscribing to the channel.

Mr. Anthony's laser cannon is very powerful, so if it gets in your eyes even once, it will easily blind you. Therefore, Mr. Anthony is wearing black goggles all the time when handling laser cannon even in the movie you posted.

Especially the powerful laser cannon seems to suffer damage to the eyes just by seeing the laser light hitting the wall.

"Because we are wearing goggles firmly, even if we deal with laser cannons for years, we have done without blindness," Anthony said.

Anthony said that he is using a diode laser to make a laser cannon.

Diode laser is a mechanism to apply voltage to semiconductor and to emit laser light.

Anthony created a laser bazooka that combines four diode lasers and launches a powerful laser beam with an output of 200 watts.

If it irradiates easily ignitable object, it can also be ignited easily.

Anthony tried to heat the onion to prove the power of the laser in the movie ......

We are doing experiments such as exploding ignition thing.

A 50 watt laser cannon has powerful power, but according to Anthony, it seems that determining the strength of the laser depends on whether or not the laser can be released collectively at one point.

By arranging a mirror on both sides of the ruby laser to amplify the light, Anthony aims to improve the power of the laser.

"What is going to happen like this?" "Curious what is going to happen?" Mr. Anthony moved Mr. Anthony and made various scientific experiments, Anthony said.

In the warehouse owned by Anthony, the garbage such as a microwave oven, an old TV, a junk PC etc. is carried like a mountain.

Anthony says that he likes to reuse the junk article and use it as part of the laser cannon and give the junk article a new purpose.

Goodfield where Anthony lives is a rural town with a population of only about 700 people.

Anthony, a young child who was interested in science, seems to be able to spend a variety of scientific experiments without being deprived by the police at the outskirts of the town.

Anthony, a child when she put something in the bucket in the home video.

Running and leaving the place, something like a firework flew out of the bucket.

Another thing seems to have been conducting dangerous experiments such as throwing something into a bonfire and exploding it.

It seems that it was quite dangerous experiment, and it seems that you think that you were playing baked unless you are wearing thick leather gloves is included in old movies.

Anthony met Laser when I was 12 years old. "It was very interesting and I felt the laser cannon was a future device."

Over the next 10 years, Mr. Anthony has made hundreds of laser cannons.

There are even those with a laser cannon mounted on the robot and operated by remote control so that the laser can be irradiated to the target.

Anthony says that the person who saw the channel of himself feels "Can do such a thing with a laser cannon!" And expects interest in science.

A hand gun type laser cannon that used batteries for power supply also seems to be made by Anthony.

By the time Anthony began making laser cannon, it seemed that there was no diode laser emitting green light, and I said emotionally that "laser technology is progressing day by day."

Laser is a collection of science and technology in various fields such as engineering, physics, chemistry, and it is very wonderful.

Although it is styropyro who has many users, it seems that it is likely to be deleted from YouTube as "it contains content recommending violent acts".

At that time, it seems that you interfered with YouTube side and you could escape channel deletion, Anthony says that science-based YouTuber is always active with the possibility of channel stop.

Anthony who talks that he got a lot of scientific knowledge on the Internet argues that contents introducing science and technology should not be deleted as "dangerous" unnecessarily.

"Once science-based content is closed, children will deprive opportunities to touch the interests of science, and future scientists will be gone," Anthony says.

Anthony's movie teaches the fun of science through experiments with laser cannon.

"Lasers are technologies that are used all over the place, they are very interesting and will make us feel the future," Anthony said hotly.
