For making this laser harp you will require basic soldering skills, and some experience working with the arduino.

Word of caution:

We are a generation that love sound and light – can’t do without them really. Our most preferred time of day is night, or what we would call evening. We are particularly well acquainted with technology; doesn’t hurt these days. Our prerequisite for everything is that it be ‘cool’. Put it all together and in a stroke of brilliance, and a little help from our friend the internet, we have the ideal solution – a laser harp.A laser harp, what on earth is that? Sounds kind of fancy doesn’t it? Well, it is basically what it says it is. The laser harp is an electronic instrument where a motor, a light sensor, a microprocessor Arduino, and, I’m sure you’ve guessed, a laser collaborate to produce beams, each representing a note (we will elaborate for those who care to read on). This harp though doesn’t have a frame: its strings stretch out infinitely into space – we know no boundaries.Our inspiration was a video we had watched online and found rather fascinating. Apart from the fact that the prospect of creating it without too much expenditure, mental or monetary, was exciting, it seemed a project providing scope for learning in different areas, especially since we wanted to present it as a complete product. Part research, part reverse engineering led us to figure out its functioning. Admittedly, we have not contributed any addition to the original creation, but to achieve it was in itself gratifying. And there’s always room for originality and improvement in the future.Lasers are very harmful for the eyes, make sure you wear appropriate eye protection.Our Video will be ready in another 12 hours!
