ABSTRACT:
A laser scan converter is disclosed which converts the scan of a laser li beam in one plane--say, a horizontal plane--into a scan thereof in another plane--say, a vertical plane. The invention comprises a rotating multi-faceted mirror which, as it rotates, intercepts in a first plane a laser light beam that optionally has passed through a semi-mirror and reflectively scans it back to the reflective surface of said semi-mirror which re-reflects and redirects it to a full mirror which, in turn, re-re-reflects and re-redirects it to a predetermined surface of a utilization apparatus, the surface of which is located in a second plane that is different from the aforesaid first plane--say, one that is perpendicular thereto.
