Optical Air Data Systems
I actually did some research (layman research) on air data systems a few months ago and discovered that laser based optical air data systems had been developed.

Here are a few interesting links:
Optical air data systems
Michigan Aerospace Corporation - Molecular Optical Air Data System (MOADS) - FAQ
Michigan Aerospace Corporation - Molecular Optical Air Data System (MOADS)
http://www.michiganaerospace.com/pdf...orne_lidar.pdf

I hope this helps
