Real-time laser safety
ShadowGuard masks the laser beam around people and objects in real time, using computer vision on the galvanometers. Deploy interactive laser near an audience, without a cage, within FDA / IEC 60825 limits.
Powerful laser near people means strict eye-safety limits (FDA, IEC 60825). The usual answers (fencing off the beam, or hand-drawing static “safe zones”) kill the interaction, and static zones don’t follow people who move. That’s the wall most integrators hit.
Cameras detect people and objects; ShadowGuard inhibits laser emission exactly where they are. The beam is masked around each person, even as they move.
ShadowGuard is built to FDA and IEC 60825 requirements: the regulatory barrier that opens venues and audiences closed to conventional laser shows.
Deployed under an FDA variance secured by our US partner (GhostTracker), authorizing laser-emission blocking on performers.
Emission control engineered to the international laser-safety standard.
Proven in live, regulated deployments.
Until now, keeping a laser safe around people meant heavy-handed measures: blocking the beam across whole areas, diffracting it into something dimmer, or cutting the projection the instant someone stepped in. Effective for safety, and enough to close off entire categories of use.
ShadowGuard masks the beam precisely around each person, in real time, while the rest of the projection keeps running. The laser stays live right next to your audience, opening applications that simply weren't possible before.
