Wicked Lasers makes the closest thing possible right now to a real lightsaber

Wicked Lasers is good at making products that attract tech geek attention, and a few days ago, they announced the Lasersaber, a powerful laser encased in a 32” polycarbonate blade. While it won’t cute through steel, it’s still pretty badass.

LaserSabers are energized by the light of Wicked Lasers, harnessing the power of the force. The LaserSaber features an ultra smooth magnetic gravity system that can “power up” and “power down” the blade.

The LaserSaber maintains its radiant brilliance even when the lights are on. The LaserSaber is interchangeable and will attach to any Spyder 3 model. The aircraft grade aluminum hilt ensures secure attachment of the blade. Due to the extreme powers of the Spyder 3, only operate while wearing LaserShades in a controlled environment.

Students create lightsaber-wielding robot. Way to go, traitors.

Using a Kinect sensor and a robot arm, we as the human race have now taught robots how to fight with a lightsaber. Just fantastic.

[Students] figured out a way to use off-the-shelf technology to make it work by incorporating the Microsoft Kinect sensor, which is best known as part of the Xbox game console. The color sensor can detect objects in three-dimensional space.

“We use the color image to isolate the sword from the background, because the opponent’s sword is green and nothing else in the background is green,” said graduate student Ken Oslund, who helped design what he calls the “JediBot,” named in homage to the lightsaber-wielding characters from the Star Wars movies.
