Abstract This is a surveillance device that will use a laser to pick up vibrations on a surface and convert it to sound. Cole
Objectives • Use a laser to measure the vibration on a surface. • Save and playback signal. • Be able to post process the signal. • Identify the audio source. Cole
Applications • Covert Surveillance • Distance Measurements • Vibration Monitoring Cole
Advantages • Allows for long range surveillance • Difficult to detect Disadvantages • Needs stable environment • Alignment Cole
Marketability • Relatively Cheap • Reliable Data • Hard to Detect • Established Market Cole
Low Goals • Working laser based sound detector • 45º Bounce System • Basic filtering • Data output over Serial • Terminal Control Cole
Medium Goals • Working Laser Sound Detector Using Interferometry • Multiple Analog Filters • DSP • Serial I/O • Terminal Control • Serial Communication to Matlab Cole
High Goals • Wireless Communication to Computer • Data Storage • LCD Display • On Box Options • Fourier • Filter Selection • Output on Display Cole
Interferometer Setup • Why use an interferometer? • Sensitive to small signals • Perpendicular setup • Complications • Phase difference between beams • Coherence Length Kareem
Expected Signal • To get a good signal at the sensor ΔL needs to impart a phase shift in the laser beam of φ radians. • φ must be such that the intensity of the combined wave falls in one of the linear regions of Cos(t)+Cos(t+φ). Kareem
Expected Signal • Small signal leads to low distortion • Large signals will produce a frequency that is a multiple of the original. • Differential measurement reduces distortions Kareem
