I don't know of such a device.
This article is worth reading. One of its conclusions is that, "in order to be effective, it is clear that a laser pointer has to use a laser above Class 1."

I believe in intuition and inspiration. Imagination is more important than knowledge. For knowledge is limited, whereas imagination embraces the entire world, stimulating progress, giving birth to evolution. It is, strictly speaking, a real factor in scientific research.
