核心畫面

Picture a machine that gathers light into one perfectly straight, very narrow line — strong enough to cut steel or to work inside an eye. Ordinary light spreads everywhere; this one goes in a single direction and stays thin the whole way.

可以想成:一台把光收攏成一條筆直細線的機器——細到能在眼睛裡動手術,強到能切鋼板。一般的光是往四面八方散開的,這條線更多收起可以想成:一台把光收攏成一條筆直細線的機器——細到能在眼睛裡動手術,強到能切鋼板。一般的光是往四面八方散開的,這條線卻只往一個方向走,而且一路都不變粗。這個畫面同時解釋了為什麼英文可以拿 laser 來形容注意力:laser focus 就是把心神收成那一條線。
