In this video we will be having a look at one of the worst fake electronics project videos I have ever seen. Now the original video itself is "well" faked, but the project itself comes with so many mistakes and things that do not make any sense, it is kind of embarrassing. So sit back and let me show you why this laser diode display project will never work and whether we can make it real ;-) Let's get started!

Hey, if you're ever willing to revisit this project, try using a mirror to redirect the light rather than moving the whole laser. The mirror will be lightweight enough that you can use less chunky electromagnets and inertia will be less of a problem. IIRC, this is roughly the same concept real laser displays use. I also would say that for this specific design you may have more luck trying out a laser diode encased in plastic- I have one lying around and while it is rather dim (I think I might've partially broken it) it is super light compared to a bigger one encased in metal.
@TheOleHermit
@TheOleHermit Жыл бұрын
That brings up another point. Laser diodes are packaged inside copper or brass cylinders, so that they can be mounted inside brass or copper mounts that are mounted mounted onto aluminum optical plates. The whole assembly is a heat sink to keep the laser diodes from overheating, which reduces resistance, increases current, which causes a runaway state of self destruction.

Even easier laser projection display idea with no moving parts! How about an electron gun (laser) inside a vacuum tube with magnetic fields focusing and bending the rays (changing the trajectory of the electronics) to hit specific points on a phosphorescent coating on the interior side of the tube opposite to the electron emitter with the target point moving across in a line and then up line by line to display an image on the outside of the tube. Oh wait that's a CRT (Cathode Ray Tube) display, first conceived around 130 years ago.

Now I get some flashbacks. 30 years ago my buddy and I did exactly that. He had a helium-neon-laser (it had the size of a little brief case) and we glued one side of a tiny laser mirror to the middle of a little speaker (we cut off the membran for faster movement) and the other side at a hinge that was made of a thin plastic tube and a peace of wire. We made two of them and we could create some nice figures using two sinus generators. We were teenagers, btw :)

There's an old school version that's actually sound reactive in the most analog of ways where you take a laser pointer and point it at a small mirror attached to a Bloon stretched across a ring so that when sound vibrations hit the stretched Bloon it vibrates the mirror, changing the angle of reflection of the laser point.

I did exactly that in the early '90-s as a light show for a school band that I was helping out. To get a grip on how long ago it was, I used the physics institution's He-Ne-laser. A program I made on my Amiga created the waveforms. And since I didn't want to take my computer to school, I recorded them on a Hi-fi VHS deck so they could be played back with enough fidelity for the figures not to get distorted. Compact cassette or even reel-to-reel wasn't even close to acceptable.

It makes more sense to suspend a very lightweight mirror and deflect that with smaller magnets. It'll still be clunky, but better than the original idea. You can get an infinity symbol by putting plastic wrap over a loudspeaker, gluing a small mirror in the middle of the plastic, bouncing a laser off the mirror from 45 degrees, while feeding variable frequencies from a function generator to the loudspeaker. Certain harmonics of the mirror's resonant frequency will generate shapes whose size varies with the harmonic value.

About 30 years ago I made something similar to this (that worked!). Difference was I directed the laser beam, not the who damn laser head (since.. you know... mass of photons vs metal - ha ha!). I had an old video laser disc player laying around that I robbed for parts. It used a red HeNe laser tube (pretty cool looking) and a couple of mirrors that controlled the beam. 1 for X & 1 for Y axis. I was just using what I had laying around - and this was way before Arduinos and the internet existed - so all I used was a stereo audio source. One channel connected to each axis. Certain music would give boring patterns, but Pink Floyd (for one) was awesome since they used such crazy mixing of the left & right channels. The laser was SO bright, I could shoot a pattern at my ceiling and get an 8- 10ft diameter pattern. I still have it, but haven't powered it up in at least 20 years. No clue if it still works even. I'll have to try it one day!

The body diodes of the MOSFETs would tend to absorb much of the inductive spike, but you're right, a parallel flyback diode is safer. You might get better performance by attaching a magnet to the diode, making an iron circuit between the coils so the laser diode lives in the gap, fine tuning the gap size, adjusting the compliance of the laser diode mount, etc., but the best you're going to get out of it is fairly low frequency Lissajous figures, nothing like a raster scan.

I don't have any experience with these types of systems but that was my first thought. You'll never be able to control the magnetic field and movement fast enough to complete an 'image frame' regardless of what you do. Maybe if you scale it and add multiple projecting units to complete one section of a frame, or create a grid system similar to pixels, but the thing itself would be very slow. There's no way this 'solution' has any ground to stand on.

@@viermidebutura precise placement of the coils is expected, but I highly doubt you can go from one opposing side to the other in a physical environment controlled by magnetic fields in a timely manner to actually make a frame. The reason this works in an old cathode ray tubes is because projection is done and controlled by refocusing the electron beam itself via coils, not the whole gun. That's not how lasers work.

@@Adrian2140 the problem with a mechanical approach is the spring that holds the laser diode which will vibrate like crazy. This vibration can be harnessed but you overcomplicate the driving circuit. The deflection coils on a CRT have nothing to do with focusing but they move the electron beam across the screen
@Adrian2140
@Adrian2140 Жыл бұрын
@@viermidebutura That's what I meant by focus, as in direct the beam. You can't mechanically reproduce what the coils do with an electron beam in a cathode ray tube. The only way this would work would be by redirecting the laser in a similar manner, not the laser source itself, but since you can't do that with lasers, you'd need a 'filter' or lense that redirects it. That's why I said this idea has no ground to stand on from the start, just like GS pointed out.

Very nice breakdown on both the initial design and the concept itself. I've seen something adjacent to this, where instead of magnets affecting the diode, they actually use a mirror and a speaker to control the laser output shape with sound. Theoretically, that would be a much simpler way to get the same end result.
