A long corridor closed at both ends, covered with mirrors and filled with humans. Inside, safety messages are broadcast continuously. Once a population inversion of boredom states is formed, one end is seeded with a yawn, and voilà, a wave of yawns propagates down the corridor.
Like the primitive
ruby laser of the sixties, this next generation laser is an invention in search of a use.
Perhaps a clock?
To make a yawn laser clock, bend the corridor back on itself. Populate it with thousands of bored humans. With one seed yawn, correctly applied, a wave of yawns circles endlessly, tick tock, tick tock.

I am a little hazy how the chromium atoms are going to get excited by the non light emitting yawn, unless you actually mean to channel the soundless energy of the yawn, turning the yawn laser into a powerful pro-yawn-inducing weapon,
sounds like the basis for an Adam West 60's Batman Plot! |

Would you have to get humans of only a specific musical pitch, so as to make the yawns a single spectrum? |

Who else yawned while reading this idea? Just me? |

A vrey gfooy alipptacion of Psyhics - I like it. |

I think that the human population will have to be slightly doped... |
|

...which does appear to be the case. |

This sounds like "the wave" at a Mets game. |
