A laser lamp uses mirrors to direct a [[laser]] on to a [[phosphor]] that then emits a light. Laser lamps use half as much power as [[LED lamp]]s. They were first developed by [[Audi]] for use as headlamps in the [[24 Hours of Le Mans]] in 2014.<ref>{{cite web|first=Virginia |last=Herndon |url=https://www.audiusa.com/newsroom/news/press-releases/2014/01/laser-light-assists-audi-drivers-le-mans |title=Laser light assists Audi drivers at Le Mans |website=Audiusa.com |date=2014-01-20 |access-date=2017-07-18}}</ref>
