Razor-Lazer Music Transmitter

Designed and Built by Students Eric A. DeCuir Jr. and David Fryauf

Electrical Engineering Overview 10

Project Goal:Project Goal:

Transmit stereo music over a laser beam to a remote stereo receiver

How it works:How it works:

MP3 player outputs varying electrical signal from mini headphone jackthis electrical

signal is converted into amplitude modulated 635nm laser light via an audio transformer

silicon phototransistor converts modulated laser light back into varying electrical

signal transducer (speaker) converts electrical energy back into sound by compressing

the air in front of a moving cone creating what our ear interprets as sound.
