Now before anyone attacks my title I know im not talking about actual spectrum adjustment but rather beam combinations so that they appear to be different spectrums....that is what is the intention of the title.
What do I need to do this? Ive read through several threads to try to get an idea and I have picked up I believe most of the basics. I will be needing dichroic glass to combine the beams. I will need high power red, green, and blue laser modules with adjustable drivers. Anything else come to mind?
By sheer luck I have had on old rear projection tv sitting around for the last few years collecting dust. I just took it apart and found all sorts of goodies including several dichroic glass pieces, first surface mirrors, focusing lenses, and some other optics I cannot even begin to understand. It was like a lasers enthusiasts wet dream.
I also already have a spare 445nm diode so im well on my way. My budget is going to be pretty low for this so im thinking maybe 300mw red and 100-200mw green.
The most pertinent question I have is the adjustable drivers...Whats the trick? Are there DIY driver plans or premade adjustable drivers available?
