Nichia makes crazy good lasers but you need to focus the light perfectly on the camera.
Since my of us love lasers and need them for work, my recommendation is to not use those to cause releases of energy from a distance. That would cause more regulations. Maybe we should have a 2nd.1 amendment to give us the right to bare lasers, phasers and mazers and any tool that would help the people during an invasion. The homealone amendment.
