Abstract

Laser control systems and related methods for controlling arrays of lasers are disclosed. A laser control system may include a first controller configured to generate a trigger signal based on a position of a laser array, and a second controller configured to send a firing signal to one or more lasers of the laser array upon receiving the trigger signal. The one or more lasers may be selected based on a desired pattern of laser energy to be formed at a particular position of the laser array.
