laser-guided
Light-beam directed precisely
Laser-guided describes weapons or systems that use a laser beam to direct themselves to a target.
A laser-guided bomb or missile homes in on laser light reflected from the target, allowing precision strikes.
Figuratively, laser-guided suggests extreme accuracy or focus: a laser-guided focus on quarterly earnings.
