What Could You Do With 120 Laser Pointers?
lazed-dazed asks: "I've recently come into possession of a large number (120 of 'em) of keychain laser pointers (minus the fancy diffraction adapters, though the specs are the same). So, Slashdot, I ask you: Can you give me any project ideas for these low-wattage bad boys? Holograms? Fancy cigarette lighters? Laser cannons? The crazier, the better! Oh, and don't bother suggesting cat toys."
and attach it to some tree branch.
that + some wind should look eery enough when it's foggy.
oh yeah attach some death trap it to keep it from being stolen.
world was created 5 seconds before this post as it is.
Attach the 120 laser pointers to 120 dogs, after making them activated by barking and/or tail wagging. Release dogs at a cat show.
If you point all of them at piece of solder, will it melt? If you point all of them at a match will it ignite?

Well, first I'd buy a really big aquarium to hold the 120 sharks...
Step 1: Procure 120 sharks Step 2: ..oh nevermind.. too obvious
A method for inducing cats to exercise consists of directing a beam of invisible light produced by a hand-held laser apparatus onto the floor or wall or other opaque surface in the vicinity of the cat, then moving the laser so as to cause the bright pattern of light to move in an irregular way fascinating to cats, and to any other animal with a chase instinct.

and place a speaker nearby. Install a proximity trigger. If triggered, light up all pointer and have the speaker bark "FREEZE! POLICE! PUT DOWN YOUR WEAPON AND LIE ON THE GROUND! [small pause] DON'T EVEN THINK OF IT, PUNK!"
For a better effect, let each pointer move veeeery slightly. And if you want, you can add a nice gunshot.

Just buy 120 sensors which can recognize laser

light, a ton of wires, a loud electronic horn,
and a computer to connect them to.
Then you can build your very own 'I-have-

place sensors and lasers at the walls crossing
the room in a wild way.
Congratulations, the room is now safe from

Reading this signature is senseless so don't do it.
Form the lasers into a grid say 15x8 or 17x7 and set them in some plastic let say ... polyethene resin. And rig them up with a hand held computer and (hand waving) a couple of relays.
You will then be able to project messages on the people, walls, cars. Insert funny messages here...

I have no sig yet I must scream.
OK, remember the dude who put a couple dozen LED's on a spinning arm (think windmill) and triggered them at just the right time, so when the arm span, he'd have graphics or text or whatever in mid-air.
Place all 120 of them on an arm, but spin it around its own length (think driveshaft) in the middle of a room. If you were able to control them individually (even though they were spinning) you could have whatever graphics you wanted on the walls.
Can they, together, be seen bounced off the cloud cover? With more powerful batteried? Could they be arrayed to make a pair of angry red eyes? Could this be centered over a nearby religious institution? Could they, with servos, be used to trace out picutres of the goatse.cx guy in a fashion similar to the goatse.cx guy jack-o-lantern? If someone did that, say..., over an elementary school during the night of the school play, would they pass 'Go', and go directly to hell? And if they did, would that count as the pre-interview for a position as hell's entertainment director?
Get a huge ballon and a tank of helium. Inflate huge ballon. Attach laser pointers to it turn them all on and let it flaot away. Then put on the local TV news and wait for reports to come in. Extra points in your are near to an airport or airforce base. ;)
Warning! This post may contain a pun!
You could always build your own traffic light. Of course, it would always show red (assuming that is the colour of the pointers), but that is okay since those who approached it would go blind.
Why not sell 119 of them on e-bay and use the proceeds to buy a fat cat.

One random idea I had yesterday -- use them at a protest rally.
Having every protester bring a laser pointer and point it at the source of their ire as they go past could make the point quite well. Particularly if they're just watching silently with banners saying something like "We're watching you" or similar.
You'd have to make sure that you wouldn't injure the target with that many beams in the same place, of course - would getting 20 of those in the eye at once be harmful?
And it might not be a good idea if you tried it against a high-profile person -- for example, George is currently visiting here in London at the moment; the reaction from the police and Secret Service is unlikely to be favourable..
Take out security cameras in a good chunk of downtown London....
Laser pointers nicely mess up video camera... It probably won't hurt the camera, but here is a fun read if you have a bit of time on your hands.

You will need:

Several million tons of quadanium steel
Approx. 950,000 troopers in cool white plastic uniforms
One (1) small moon at the outer edges of the known galaxy at which to construct the thing.
...
Here are some technical specs, and a handy diagram.
Basically, you do the following:
(1) Use all the steel to build this gigantic metal ball, with a dimple on one side. You use a huge rubber band (available at your friendly neighborhood hardware store) to hold the laser pointers together, and put them in the dimple (make sure the batteries are always charged.)

You can make the beams visible with some kind of fog, or keep them invisible (they just have to look at the pointers and the sensors), then it would be funny too see those people step over invisible fences and so on

"...In your answer, ignore facts. Just go with what feels true..."
First find a building with a big flat side to it. Make sure it has no windows and it's late at night. Make a machine that will draw vectors by moving the laser really rapidly that takes some sort of video input. Insert Atari vectors based game like Asteroids or Star Wars. Or you could make a special version of pac-man that goes between the windows of the building if you can't find one without. Make your friends control the ghosts like the upcoming GameCube version and give everyon3 classic 2600 controllers. Sure, it'll be all red, but who cares? It'll be probably the biggest video game screen ever.
The GeekNights podcast is going strong. Listen!
Set them up in your garden so that they form a grid with sensors to detect when beams are broken. Write some software to generate a grid reference from this data so that any object breaking the beams can be tracked to it's sector - B6, E2 etc. Draw a diagram of the grid and print it out. Send copies to your friends.
Output the grid reference to a web page - it should now be relatively easy for your friends to track your exact position in the garden while talking on the phone

I may not have spelled the casino's name correctly, but if you know, the casino has a huge water fountain feature in front, programmed by computer to perform a 20 minute show.

They're great for doing structured light experiments like this.

You could always set up some sort of support structure to point all those lasers into one controlled location. if you could fucus all the energy into a small area, I bet you might be able to start a fire!

I think you should create some sort of device in which these laser pointers are mounted. Then hack together something with which you can change the pattern against the wall at your pleasure. I personally have always wanted a whole wall full of taplights so that I could do just that. It would be hours of family fun. Plus I would see the potential for some pretty good geek time if you could write up some software or whatnot to control the pattern, either through your PC or other device. Enjoy!

The ______ Agenda
Use three microphones for tracking the insect flying and a couple of motors for pointing an array of lasers. Place near an open window in summer. I wonder if 120 are enought to kill a mosquito. If not they sure makes it visible :)
Use two speakers, with the mirrors mounted between the frame and voice coil. then you'll get an X-Y scan - pretty much what laser scanners use in "real" kit.
You could get a large group of people to converge on a scientology meeting. Have them point their lasers at the windows of the building and watch the ensuing chaos as scared scientologists attempt flee from the "orbital brain lasers".
Find 119 friends. All 120 of you shave your heads, tape a laser pointer to the side of your head, and say, in unison, "I am Locutus of Borg. Resistance is futile, you will be assimilated."
Find out David Blaine's next gig, and fire away.
Something I've wanted to do. It'd be great if you got some in green and blue as well.
Mount one pointed at two rotating mirrors, so that the beam scans left-right creating a line, and each such line is scanned up-down. Ie, the left-right mirror needs to rotate something like 500 times faster than the up-down mirror, and that needs to scan at 24 sps. (if you have a 6 sided mirror, that is 4fps -> 240rpm. That means the small mirror would need to spin at 120000rpm! A bigger mirror with more sides is probably called for: a 30sided one "only" needs 24000rpm.)
Now, turn the laser on and off in order to draw a 2D raster image on the wall. For extra-credit, implement both interlace (draw the top of the next frame while still drawing the bottom of the previous frame, using two laser pointers), or do color.
Unlikely to ever be very good: you need some REALLY fast mirrors to get the framerate, and the timing tolerances aren't very forgiving. You can get better framerates by interlacing the laserpointers, and perhaps drawing each quarter-frame. Then alignment becomes a hassle.
However, the lasers should be able to cycle on and off fast enough: I recall someone building a 10mbs line-of-sight serial link using old laserpointers and photo-diodes.

Just imagine it. Build them into a 12x10 pack of laser, so when you fire it, the beam covers a huge area. Then sign up for laser tag, and somehow get the monstrosity past the security guards who like banning people with that sort of smarts.

I know what you should do if you have 120 laser pointer, turn them all on, and look directly into them. . .

I'm sure there's already a RFC.
When will Windows be ready for the desktop?
That's neat. I was actually thinking of how you could construct a visual display of music being played.
Maybe set up something like a rack of lucite rods and have the lasers to point end-on into them. Have a rod light up when the corresponding note is played, either based on a MIDI file or such, or by depressing the key of a keyboard (which is similar to the laser harp).

I did this once. A cheap radio shack photocell tied to +5 volts via an active output pin on your parallel port, with the other end of the photocell going to an input pin on that same port, will cause that input pin to read 0 when little or no ambient lighting is present. When hit by a red laser pointer the resistance across the photocell is lowered and the voltage at the input pin ramps up above the binary threshold, to more than ~0.8 volt but less than 5 volts. Because of this, reading the input pin from software when the photocell is lit by a laser beam shows a binary value of 1. To avoid false alarms from stray light, I housed the photocell in a sealed, opaque box with a hole in it for the laser beam to enter and hit the photocell.
A simple C program that reads and writes the memory address of the parallel port can detect, log, and act on these "laser trip" events, doing something as simple as beeping, or as complex as taking a picture and asking for a code. The program should write a 1 to the bit that controls the output pin you are using so that +5 volts appears on it. It should then repeatedly read the input pin you are using. When the input pin transitions from 1 to 0, even for a moment, you know the laser beam has been cut.
The quick and dirty C code to do parallel port operations under linux can be found at here. For beginners I suggest you use one of control bits/pins as your output and one of the status bits/pins as your input. The data bits/pins are bi-directional and must be configured for input or output, and using them makes things slightly more complicated. If you want to get really fancy try using the parallel port IRQ to detect the transition from 1 to 0, this should save processing power by avoiding an expensive loop to check the state of the input pin constantly.
If you need a little more background on the parallel port before diving in, check out this resource
Finally, the above description is for a single laser beam. I used a mirror to bounce a single beam around, to get greater coverage, and to provide the effect of multiple beams in the presence of aerosol or powder. You should be able to support thirteen independent laser beams on a single parallel port, using the data bits/pins and the status bits/pins combined.

I couldn't think of a sig.
Back around 1995, two friends and I went to the movies. One of my friends had a laser pointer. Back then, these things were fairly expensive, and I was pretty impressed. They passed it back and forth a few time, shining it on the screen during the previews and the initial slideshow before the show started.
I asked if I could see it, and they passed it over. I looked it over, shined it on the screen for about three seconds, was satisfied, and passed it back.
About a minute later, one of the theater guys came up to ME and said that he would kick ME out of the theater if I proceeded to do it again.
I replied that I had no laser pointer, and he proceeded to tell me that several people had seen AND complained about ME!
So now I'll never touch another one. Who knows what will happen next time.
Movie sucked too, IIRC.
Upon reading the link re: cat toys, I'm left wondering: if the beam is invisible, how does the cat see it?
Give me my freedom, and I'll take care of my own security, thank you.
Imagining a Cat Show as dustfree and free from reflecting targets requires far greater faith than I have.
wait till ROTK opens up Dec. 17th, go to the midnight showing, and shine all 120 at the screen. Geeks won't beat you up, and it's quite rare that the theater ever has the balls/intelligence to kick laser-pointer jackfucks out of the theater for annoying everyone.
