CD-ROM Drive Laser Pickup Module Hack
« on: March 01, 2009, 10:59:11 PM »
Laser pointer light show using cd-rom drive's opto-electronic tracking module and a cheap "laser" pointer,
with Microchip's PIC16F73 microcontroller.




demo (youtube) video:

* still on-going pa rin ang pag-develop ng code, still looking for a better beat detection algoritm
* "hinaluan" ko muna ng "pattern" sa code

schematic (simplified):

* +/- 1V ang kelangan nung dalawang coils (represented by 2 motors in the schem.) ng module
* around 5ohms ang dc resistance ng coils)


actual circuit:

* pinalitan ko yung original lens ng module ng lens nung "laser" pointer (bigger diameter).

main components used:

*cheap "laser" pointer (super bright red LED) and CD-ROM drives's opto-electronic tracking module

ang problema dun sa module eh hindi "X-Y" ang axes  nya, :(
kundi "X" saka "focus" lang.. separate ang mechanism para sa Y-axis (separate motor)
