For his Hackaday Prize entry, [oakkar7] is building an optical power meter, capable enough to do futzy fiber work, but still completely DIY.

Here is how the power meter does it: 1. Current passes through the meter on the way to the circuits inside the house (and again on the way back out). As the current flows through the meter, it ...

1. Providing a digital display, an analog output, data-collection capability, and graphical presentations, the 2936-R optical power and energy meter comes with two 918D-series photodiode detectors.

Walk into a photonics lab anywhere in the world and it is almost a certainty that some type of optical power meter will be close at hand. Nature Photonics profiles a selection of the latest ...
