Connect two objects with visible light

AI Thread Summary
The discussion revolves around finding a solution to clearly mark cricket boundary lines using cones, which often leads to disputes about whether the ball is in or out. One proposed idea is to connect the cones using visible light, either through sunlight reflection or LED lights. Participants suggest alternatives like using technology similar to hawk-eye systems in football or employing a thick rope to create a clear boundary indication. The original poster seeks detailed plans and is open to other innovative solutions. The goal is to enhance clarity in boundary marking during cricket games.

Hey!

I play cricket as a hobby, we have to mark the boundary.
And we use cones to mark it(http://www.rkme.com/wp-content/uploads/product/cricket/CPR-08.jpg)
Having it in limited number results in confrontation whether it is out of boundary or not.

I am looking for solution for you guys.
According to me possible solution can be, connecting two cones with visible light.
Which can be done using:
1. Sunlight reflecting
2. LED lights

Unfortunately I am not physics pro, so don't know how to go ahead with that.

I am open to other solutions too.
I appreciate detailed plan on how we can connect two cricket boundary cones.

waiting...

Best Regards.

Maybe you could use a hawk-eye type thing, like they do in football (goal-line technology)
 
Some clubs use a thick rope to mark the boundary. This cause a ball rolling on the ground to be kicked up giving s clear indication that it reached the boundary.
 
Thread 'A quartet of epi-illumination methods'
Well, it took almost 20 years (!!!), but I finally obtained a set of epi-phase microscope objectives (Zeiss). The principles of epi-phase contrast is nearly identical to transillumination phase contrast, but the phase ring is a 1/8 wave retarder rather than a 1/4 wave retarder (because with epi-illumination, the light passes through the ring twice). This method was popular only for a very short period of time before epi-DIC (differential interference contrast) became widely available. So...
I am currently undertaking a research internship where I am modelling the heating of silicon wafers with a 515 nm femtosecond laser. In order to increase the absorption of the laser into the oxide layer on top of the wafer it was suggested we use gold nanoparticles. I was tasked with modelling the optical properties of a 5nm gold nanoparticle, in particular the absorption cross section, using COMSOL Multiphysics. My model seems to be getting correct values for the absorption coefficient and...
