    RGB hand-held laser

    Hi All, Been snowing and with a few inches of snow in the back garden making a nice large projection screen, I took these shots from the first floor bedroom. Shapes are about 10-15ft across ATB MM

    Is it worth my effort ?

    Hi Badspella, You can control the laser driver using the Arduino PWM outputs. Here is a thread that will help. http://laserpointerforums.com/f42/making-ttl-driver-dx-200mw-greenie-51916.html In simple terms, just put a transistor across the voltage ref and hey presto - a PWM controlled driver...

    RGB hand-held laser

    Thanks, eugene, DJNY and bdgrrenb, It sure is a fun thing to play with. I've still a fair amout of software to complete. The accelerometer angle mode realy needs to be able to change the sensitivity. At the mo, it needs a full 180 degree swing from floor to sky to get a full colour change. I'll...

    Hope not bud, If you've tried to contact him several times over a period, deffo try get your money back -and sort out another source to get the boards done.

    RGB hand-held laser

    Hi, Here is a quick video showing my favorite function .....Angle Mode. The processor board has an accelerometer / angle sensor, so the XYZ angle of the laser controls each of the RGB channles. The chip was a sod to solder, but it was worth it:drunk:

    Im a loser baby

    A hobby is a hobby. Are those people who sit by the river catching fish only to put them in them back in the water crazy? People who collect stamps - lick the back and put them in a album sad? People who watch birds (flying kind) weird? People who go to the train station to watch trains, nerds...

    RGB hand-held laser

    Wewba, You are correct, this one is not for sale.....but I do have 4 spare pcb sets and some of the main machined parts so there will be an oportunity to build some more later. However, I still need to fix the wide red beam before seriously considering making onother one /more and a fair bit...

    Check out this green laser in action

    Just for show, they even added smoke - normally this would be very carefully extracted to prevent damage to the output lens. I'ts most likely a Nd.YAG or CO2 and those IR beams would make a boring video so I recon they "bling'd" it up with the green. They should have used a yellow wavelength as...

    delta-another RGB handheld

    Re: delta-another RGB Hi Flare, Looking good, different concept to my RGB hand-held. I like the idea of adding a spiro to the front, massive battery and cooling - should get 100% duty :beer: Good idea to have the drivers on board, I didn't have space as the PCB is 42mm dia Vs your 47mm. Make...

    Beam size meaurements

    Hi, here is a Wiki link...mmmm:confused: Gaussian beam - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia OK, so if we do that, we all get apples, not oranges.... but sometimes a banana is close enough (and I like bananas). As long as the review details the measurement method, rule, caliper, whole beam /...
