A device for illuminating a target comprises a laser which produces a light beam, a viewing medium which receives electromagnetic radiation in an acceptance band, a beam-splitter which splits the light beam into a first beam and a second beam, and an imaging assembly. The imaging assembly comprises a light conversion medium and an element responsible for image creation comprising one of a light focusing medium and a light reflective medium. The first beam is directed along a travel path from the beam-splitter to the element and then to the light conversion medium, wherein the light conversion medium converts the first beam into electromagnetic radiation within the acceptance band. A spot object distance between the light conversion medium and the element is less than a target distance. The target distance is between the target and the beam-splitter less a distance between the beam-splitter and the element.
