Can IR diodes like the ones shown in the following link (salvaged from CD burners) be used for ranging applications?
LucidScience - Build the LASER NIGHT VISION - Page 3 of 13
If yes, will a simple IR photo-diode work or will I need a specialized sensor?
also what king of protection and focusing optics will be needed to prevent harm to other people/objects and produce a more or less uniform thin beam.
Also has someone attempted something of this kind?
Thanks
