Just a hacked version of a decades old technique of using a laser to pick up vibrations off a window.

Shoot back in the 60s they could listen in on cradled phones in a room due to the micro voltages created by the transducer.

I suspect incandescent bulbs are required.

I'm sorry, Dave, but every one of the lights in your space pod is my little spy.

I doubt this was available years ago when the Soviet army occupied Afghanistan, but there is a funny story about lights and spying.

The Chief of Station knew that the Sov. intel folks were keeping track of him by watching his window lights. He figured out a way to put a dummy in his place that would move its arms and head automatically and could be seen in silhouette through his office window. Reportedly it drove the Sovs mad because he was working so many hours.
