Opto-Isolated Laser Controller Build

“My goal was to utilize a free hardware output line to signal to a device that I build to modulate the laser in a special way. This way there would be no modification to any existing equipment, and no software …

Quick, dirty and cheap laser engraver

“After playing a while with the “pocket laser engraver” I’ve fabricated folowing the instructable made by Groover, I want to make something bigger with things I already have in my possession. The only thing I’ve bought is a …

Arduino - Laser Tripwire Alarm System

“In this instructable, we will be building a laser guided tripwire alarm system using a development board.”

Make a Simple Laser Diode Module

“Laser diodes are quite useful in some ways especially in trigger/alarm systems such as triplight mechanisms or even in DIY toys if you just want to play with it. These two terminal devices are generally much more expensive than …

Spiraling Lasers

“There have been several projects building motor/mirror laser light shows, but most use custom electronics or only manual controls. I liked the motor idea, but wanted to control it using a standard Arduino to minimize the unusual hardware and …

Project  Laser Harp

Laser Harp

“The laser harp is an electronic instrument that is played by blocking laser beams. Several laser beams are produced, and a note is played when one of the beams is blocked by the player, similar to plucking a stick on …

DIY Laser Engraving

“As manufacturing electronics became much cheaper, more technologies are more accessible for makers, enabling us to be able to create anything we would like. One of the things I am more passionate about is laser engraving. I made a little …

Target Practice with Arduino and Laser Pointer

“So let’s say you’re an imperial stormtrooper. You’re constantly gunning for rebel scum but when you’re face-to-face with the enemy you couldn’t hit the broadside of an AT-AT with your laser rifle. Worry no …

DVD to Laser Engraver

“This is my very first instructable, i’ve been in this page for a couple of years now, and this is the first BIG project i tackle on, so i decided that after i finish it i was going to …

Arduino-Processing-Laser-CNC

“This is a project I made in 2015 and now publishing. The core of the Project is a hardware made out of two CD drive stepper motors an mechanics, two L298 motor drivers and an arduino Mega.”
