Laser that helps you read

This is an invention i came up with to help you read because i would always lose my place while reading and it got really annoying.

Step 1 Step one: the laser

you will need to get the right type of laser because other lasers wont work. they will either be to bright and distract you away from the reading or might not be bright enough.
so you need
-a laser
-button cell batteries (they should come with the laser)
-tape
-solder and soldering gun or strong glue
-glasses (prescription or not)
-patience

I may be a little old fashioned but why not use your finger??

I use my finger for tracking while I read - but my stepson has an e-reader with a touch screen - messes me up big time. That's why I took a look at this 'ible.

Obviously, lasers make everything better. Didn't you have to take Madscience 101 in school?

I kid, I kid. You actually have a pretty good point. I suppose for people with severe dexterity issues, this could be a very useful idea.

I only audited the course, never had time to take it for credit.

[rickharris]

True there is always an application for a good idea.

Take madscience 101?? I taught it :-)
