The light acquisition sensor is uses the photon effect the infraredacquisition aid.

This extension of the photoelectric effect, in which one photon knocks one electron off the edge of an atom, could make physicists reconsider when light is a wave and when it's a particle.

So we see that we do not eject electrons in the case of the laser pointer, even if we have this intensity, it is still not related to the energy of an individual photon, so we won't see an effect.
