Laser Safety Apps
LVR Limited are pleased to announce the release of the world’s first Laser Safety App for Apple mobile devices. Laser Hazard Distance can be used to determine the hazard distance for a range of visible laser beams (400nm to 700nm). For the first time ever, anyone using an Apple iPhone, iPod Touch or iPad, can quickly and conveniently determine the safe exposure distance for visible laser beams. Furthermore, the Laser Hazard Distance App is available free of charge in the App Store for users of iTunes.
These Apps are the first in a series of Laser Safety Apps that are released by LVR Limited designed specifically for Apple devices. The fully featured laser safety apps provide anyone working with lasers in an entertainment or industrial environment, the ability to perform complex calculations and access critical laser safety information at a touch.
The Apps have been developed in-house as a result of combining LVR’s laser safety expertise and programming capabilities, understanding the needs of users wanting to access these tools in a convenient and easy to use manner.

Laser Hazard Distance
Compatible with iPhone, iPod Touch and iPad.
Requires iOS 3 or later.
Laser Hazard Distance is an easy to use laser safety calculator that can be used to help determine the safe viewing distance for direct exposure to visible laser beams. The light created by a laser beam is far more concentrated than other forms of light, and if viewed directly can be harmful to eyesight. The energy in a laser beam however becomes less harmful the further along the beam the light travels, eventually reaching a point where the risk is low. Laser Hazard Distance can be used to help determine this distance which is known as the Nominal Ocular Hazard Distance (NOHD). more.... |

Compatible with iPhone, iPod Touch and iPad.
Requires iOS 3 or later.
Laser Show Safety allows the exposure safety of a wide range of laser show effects to be checked against safe exposure limits, helping to reduce the chance of harm occurring as a result of excessive exposure to beams too strong to enter the eye. Users can specify laser output powers from 100mW through to 50W, over a range of different beam characteristics. Specify the distance the laser will be projecting over, and the exposure duration from a range of effects, and the laser hazard checker will calculate the exposure, and any hazard posed at the specified distance. more.... |

Important Safety Note:
Direct exposure to laser light can be harmful to eyesight and normally care should be taken to avoid doing so, especially if the user has little experience in assessing the risk. Laser Safety Apps are provided as tool to aid those competent in assessing laser exposure risk, and should be used alongside other assessment methodologies, not as a substitute. |
