| - | Hopefully there will not be big fails. Still, It would be challenge to tune and tweak the concept and build robust design. I would like to use green laser, because i got it at home and I think that its strong enough to transfer from my rooftop to the Ema hill. | + | Hopefully there will not be big fails. Still, It would be challenge to tune and tweak the concept and build robust design with using as little parts as possible. I would like to use green laser, because i got it at home and I think that its strong enough to transfer from my rooftop to the Ema hill. |
| * **step 0:** Think, ask and read how to use laser beam to transfer sound frequencies. Think how to receive this kind of information. Understand the principles. | * **step 0:** Think, ask and read how to use laser beam to transfer sound frequencies. Think how to receive this kind of information. Understand the principles. | ||

| **2]** It would be pain in the ass to calibrate this and it would change with "each blow of the wind". There are better way and they are called modulation. | **2]** It would be pain in the ass to calibrate this and it would change with "each blow of the wind".

| - | * **Pulse-Frequency Modulation**: The main idea is to make laser flashing at the frequency, which I am actually transmitting. In the other words, instead of transmitting sinus of the frequency X, I can transmitt pulse signal of the frequency X and then, after receiving this pulse signal of the frequency X, just make the sinus from it by analog filters. | + | * **Pulse-Width Modulation**: The main idea is to make laser flashing at certain frequency and while transmitting, be changing the width of pulses by the transmitted frequency |
| - | And that is how I decided to do that. If you dont understand this principle, wait for pictures or ask me personally. | + | * https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pulse-width_modulation. |
