Acoustical Optical switch..The Phoenix

I've never heard of the company nor the technology. I'm a little skeptical for all kinds of reasons. Not being a physicist I'm
unclear as to how an acousticly generated frequency could have an effect on a non-acoustic attribute - like light. Seems
like a leap but who am i to argue. let's assume for a moment that LMG can in fact create a crystal that through injected
acoustic "noise" they can refract light. The issues will become scalability, power, heat, and cost. None of these items are
detailed on the web site so it's hard to make any reasonable assesment of the applicability or viability of the project. I will
say that they're thinking about the right issues - that's clear... but beyond that I really can't comment.
