Description
From the simple measurement of laser beams to the advanced splitting and bending of lasers using optics, students discover the unique properties of laser light. In this curriculum, they begin to see the versatility of lasers by using laser equipment and tools, including lenses, beam splitter, and an optical lever. Students build a number of exciting laser products such as a laser range finder to measure distances, including their classroom, and a laser micrometer to calculate the thickness of different materials. Students create these and more, learning about everything from triangulation to engineering principles in the process.
