This is a laser beam profiler designed for use with cheap webcams. Commercial
laser beam profilers cost a lot of money although they perform fairly simple 
calculations and often have horrible user interfaces. Optics researchers 
everywhere will hopefully profit from an open-source solution designed for
inexpensive hardware.
