About LaserSafe PC

This is a must for organisations making frequent use of Lasers, Fibre Optics or LEDs and students through to professionals wishing to learn more about laser safety.  An Innovation in Laser Safety Analysis, LaserSafe PC is the programme which vastly simplifies the process of establishing the safety or otherwise of Laser situations.  It is maintained and supported by the highest authorities.  It covers all Laser situations for laboratories, industry and display.  With 10 years of tried and proven experience behind it, this is software you can depend on.   Now includes  Assistant  - the new graphical inline aid section to assist you every step of the way!  Assistant is an in-depth guide to every aspect of the calculations - from entry through to detailed explanations of the results, including the maths involved in deriving them and full definitions of terms.  Assistant's simple but accurate and concise graphics help in the visualisation of complex concepts. Enables those without expertise to quickly assess Laser situations for safety. Greatly simplifies and speeds up the process of safety analysis for those with expertise. Enables speedy evaluation of how to rectify an unsafe situation. Takes the tedium out of calculations which involve a lot of mathematics, searching through tables and applying correction factors. Enables basic laser product classification. LaserSafe PC is being developed for use as a training exercise and experiment for University students. Currently being used by major academic, medical and commercial institutions, nationally and internationally for assessment of laser safety related situations. Assistant is now installed to help and inform you every step of the way. An indispensable tool for anyone using powerful lasers and other high brightness sources. Still the de facto standard software for Laser Safety.    Now updateable directly from this website.
