Prereq: some experience with hardware and electronics helpful.
Lasers are cool and so are you. So why haven't you built any yet?
Wait, you don't know how? Let's fix that.
For the intro class the goal is to make it as easy
as possible to order some parts and build your own custom laser pointer!
The advanced class is geared towards those who have experience building things and want to try
building a more challenging laser pointer. Lase on!

In this class we'll discuss the design process behind building
lasers, bridging the gap between theory and practice. Emphasis is placed on
learning about actual components and knowing when to use them. Topics
include laser diode, driver, and hardware options and acquisition,
along with practical building techniques.

This class aims to stretch the realm of possibilities with laser
pointers. Ultra small, efficient, and powerful laser pointers will be reviewed,
discussing practical implementations and limitations. Emphasizes
optimizing optics and electronics, offering insight to various
concepts involved in laser pointers. Topics include driver design
with component and topology selection, and lens, battery, hardware
selection.

Soldering is a critical skill for all EE's and really enables you to take
your project to the next level by getting off the breadboard. At this
seminar, students will practice through hole soldering with a traditional
soldering iron by assembling a PCB business card (which they also get to
keep)! More advanced methods like surface mount soldering will also be
demonstrated. Other topics to be discussed include considerations for
designing easily solderable PCBs and techniques for soldering things in
mass production.
