I've worked with projected light before, never a laser.<br class="">
<br class="">
My advice is to make sure it is IMPOSSIBLE for the light source/laser to<br class="">
be shadowed or blocked. Use a crosshair in the middle of the object rather<br class="">
than something on or along the edge.<br class="">
