These early light gun games, like modern laser tag, used small targets ( usually moving ) onto which a light-sensing tube was mounted ; the player used a gun ( usually a rifle ) that emitted a beam of light when the trigger was pulled.

These changes can act upon the brain ’ s early stages of information processing: Research using evoked brain potentials upon painful laser pulses, for example, finds placebo effects upon the N2 – P2, a biphasic negative – positive complex response, the N2 peak of which is at about 230 ms, and the P2 one at about 380 ms.
