@ -4,16 +4,23 @@ This project provides a compact, customizable fiber-coupled laser diode module p
The goal of this project is to provide an open, accessible alternative that can be built using readily available components and a simple machined brass part, while maintaining the precision required for efficient coupling into single-mode and other fibers. The design emphasizes flexibility, reproducibility, and ease of modification, making it suitable both as a practical light source and as a platform for exploring fiber-optic technologies.
### ⚠️ WARNING
Collimated or focussed lasers can cause serious eye injury. Do not replicate without proper training and appropiate laser safety precautions.
