This is mostly a question in regards to possibilities, not practicalities.
AESAs are able to form, focus, and direct beams of radio waves based on constructive and destructive interference. Could the same be done with visible light instead of radio waves? Like, could a flashlight be made that could change the direction of its light beam based on the same principle that an AESA uses to direct its beams (i.e. no mechanical means needed)?
