Laser Music Link

  YouTube user ChibiChn has come up with a complex but accurate method of transmitting sound using a laser beam. He uses some 555 chips and a small laser to transmit the sound using laser light. Then a photo transistor, a comparator and a audio amplifier are used to receive the laser light and convert it back into audio. The result is audio that is slightly lower than CD quality.
