BirdLaser is an animal friendly bird herding tool for airports, fish farming, farms, barley, fruit and berries and other locations with bird problems. All our lasers are environmentally friendly and harmless to humans and animals without harmful radiation.
In comparison the old 500mW laser has an output power of around 200mW, which not is very efficient.
Artificial Intelligence
Lasers with Artificial Intelligence is capable of repelling most bird types, even stubborn seagulls.
The Norwegian Institute for Nature Research (NINA) have in cooperation with municipalities and farmers conducted a 2 year test with our portable laser. Feedback from farmers was 100% efficiency of the laser but they would like an automatic laser to get 24/7 protection.
Laser Safety
The Swedish Radiation Safety Authority has conducted a study on reported eye injuries over a period from 1999 to 2012 which shows that eye injuries occur from exposure to concentrated laser beams typically with a diameter of around 1-2 mm at a distance of less than 1 meter, this type of laser can burn through clothing, skin and other materials. In our expanded 50 mm laser spot there are no intense beams of this type.
Our new 1000mW@1meter diode laser module with a range of 3000 meter is classified as class 4, the laser power is measured out of the laser housing at a distance of 1 meter. We have measured temperatures on the laser spot at a distance of one meter with a thermal camera which shows no effect on temperature rise, this makes it almost impossible to cause eye damage, but glare is still a problem that must be taken into account during use. Even if the safety is better than expected, the laser precautions should be followed.
This is what you meet in traffic every day, 2 x 4300 mW of powerful 450 nm laserlight in modern cars, compared to our 1000 mW 520 nm green laser it is a huge difference and illustrates the safety of expanded laser light. But the laser diode in itself without expander is very dangerous, our 1000 mW thin diode laser beam can start a fire at a distance of 20 meter but the much more powerful 4300 mW thin diode laser beam can start a fire at over 100 meter distance.

Birds are afraid of green lasers primarily because of how their vision works and how the laser appears to them:
High Sensitivity to Green Light – Birds have excellent color vision and are especially sensitive to green and yellow wavelengths. A green laser (typically 532 nm) appears very intense to them, making it more alarming than other colors.
Sudden and Unpredictable Movement – When a laser is pointed and moved, it creates a fast, erratic light pattern that birds perceive as a potential predator or threat. This triggers their natural flight response.
Contrast with the Environment – In many outdoor settings, a bright green laser stands out starkly against natural backgrounds, making it an unfamiliar and intimidating stimulus.
Perceived as a Physical Threat – Birds may interpret the bright moving dot as an approaching object rather than just light, making them flee instinctively.
Because of these factors, green laser is a perfect tool for to repel birds from aquaculture, airports, farms, and industrial areas without causing harm.
