I'm trying to get a laserbeam to work. I've used the following code for the
laser
#declare LaserPosition = <2,1.5,1>;
#declare LaserTarget=<0,1.5,20>;
#declare LaserSize=<0.5,0.5,0.5>;
light_source {LaserPosition
              color Green
              cylinder radius .1
              falloff 0
              point_at LaserTarget
              looks_like { box {LaserPosition-LaserSize,
LaserPosition+LaserSize color Black}}
(There's also an additional white light source)

I want to shine the laser on the side of a silver colored box, see the spot
where it hits this box, reflect the beam onto the side of another silver
colored box, and see the spot where it hits this box. Also I would like to
be able to see a trace of the beam as it propagates through the "air".

How do I do this??

Hope you guys can help me
In advance thanx
kind regards
Georg
