The laser light fixtures could go out in production over the next 2-3 years, with the production version of the i8 (will occur in 2013) be the first who will time.

The luminaires using 3 laser diodes that produce 10 small beams. The blue light is created using gallium nitride, which then becomes white with the help of a disc phosphorus.
