Optical range is much more informative for communication between cosmic civilizations by the side of radio one. Special hardware and software were developed in the Special Astrophysical Observatory, in order to search for extraterrestral artifical signals, in the frame of MANIA programme to study astronomical objects with high time resolution. Parameters of two generations of equipments are discussed. In particular, new kind of panoramic detector of high time resolution are described. Results of search for optical signals from habitable area and beacons of ETI are demonstrated. New strategy of search for signals in wide fields are discussed. Some demografic projections for our civilization are analysed as possible way for any cosmic civilizations.
