Laser effects with projectors

I've saw someone about 18months ago using a projector like a laser (same sort of effects) which was made possible via this piece of software he was using...... does anybody know what this software is ?

 

Thanks

Can't help with software to simulate German lasers, but the cryptically named Laser Sim might be what you're looking for.

 

That link looks pretty cool, although how do you connect a DMX source to a projector? I checked out the USBDMX link but the output on the box is DMX. Bit useless unless you can get projectors with DMX connectors on them!

That's right. A PC runs the Laser Sim application: its graphics card outputs to the video projector.

Control is achieved either by feeding Art-Net data to that PC, or by equipping it with the USB dongle.

The dongle linked to does support DMX input - take a look at the schematic. The kits sold from that website don't bring the input out onto an external connector.
