COSTA MESA, CA - AUGUST 17: Laser pointers are getting more powerful and creating more risks for passengers on airliners and helicopter cops who are sometimes maliciously the target of the beams. OC Sheriff Deputy Erik Baum with the aviation unit uses a high definition, infrared camera mounted on the outside of the copter, bottom left, with a hand control to track down violators. The camera's detail and precision are remarkable even from more than a mile away. Lasers can cause migraines and serious injury to the eyes when pointed in someone's direction.
