摘要：
The present application relates to a device (10) for cutting hair. The device (10) has a skin contacting face (13) that is arranged to be placed against a surface of the skin (16) of a user during use, and an optical system (20) configured to direct a cutting laser beam (18) across a cutting zone (15) parallel to and spaced from said skin contacting face (13) to cut hairs (17) extending into the cutting zone (15). The device also has a detector (40) configured to generate information indicative of the presence of one or more objects representative of hair (17) and/or skin (16) in the cutting zone (15), and a controller (27). The controller (27) is able to determine the presence of one or more objects representative of hair (17) and/or skin (16) in the cutting zone (15) and to adjust one or more characteristics of the optical system (20) in dependence on the information generated by the detector (40). The present invention also relates to a method of cutting hair and a computer program comprising instructions which, when executed by at least one processor, cause the method to be performed.
