I'm working on a project for church for our bible school this year, and I'm needing some help. I've been asked to make a laser maze. I don't think it will be bad, but I've got several cheap red diodes that I'm going to try to use.
I'm going to run everything from an arduino. What I'd like to know, is there somewhere I could buy some cheap diodes that are in a module cheaply. I've got some 5mw reds, but I'd like to get either some stronger reds 50+mw or greens in the same range. I'm going to give them a pair of safety glasses to wear through just the same, and as soon as the beam is interrupted, the power will be cut off from the laser, using a photoresistor. I've kind of gotten out of lasers, and was wondering where would be the best place to get these diodes without spending a fortune.
