You could neutralize the dyes, say with UV, but still a lotta Yen.
Better yet use red cabbage juice or phenolophalein and inject small amounts of acid, then neutralize it with a small current.

was going to link the jeep vids but there are links already, there are actually 2-3 diferernt jeep vids that are work looking at.
I was taliking to a friend about this and we thought what would be really cool would be to use laser to change the colour of the water. Again we are talikng major dollars but the results would be spectacular. we figured you could scan from below and change the entire sheet of water or from the side and track the shaped being "printed " Also variation on this there would be to have liquid with bubbles being released by valese
or how about scanning a rainbow of color and having the water image fall thru it..

I think using it as a water screen in the "traditional" sense would be awesome; assuming you can get the "sheet" effect. Shooting lasers down the stream itself to change the color of the water might not be safe given the probability of reflection off the water as it breaks apart.![]()
i think that if it was fiber coupled it may be OK..

Fitting red, green and blue lasers to each water stream would probably run them more than the price it cost to build AND install the whole thing :P
Very cool however![]()
You could try a single axis scanner with a really wide angle, or several side by side; maybe scan into some type of diffuser for safety...![]()
