My local garage is selling laser devices that project
a straight line for just under a fiver. I wonder if these
devices (with the lens removed so that they just
produce a single spot) could be modulated to be
the light source in a Baird Televisor?


The Baird system has been superceded by more modern techniques. In fact,
unless you catch up quick, you may miss out a whole generation of technical
improvements that have occured since "Stookie"
