Can somebody please point me in the right direction.
I'd like to do an experiment to measure the spray that comes off car tires traveling in the rain. I thought about rigging up a small system consisting of a laser, collimating lenses and a light sensor to measure the intensity of the laser through the water spray. Any suggestions as to what laser and light sensors (and vendors if you know any) would be appropriate for this type of application. The laser will travel the width of a car/truck tire ~ 200 mm max. I'm thinking to hook the light cells to a multimeter to check the drop in light intensity as the laser passes through the water spray/fog. I've never worked with this before and am on a very low budget. Any help is appreciated.
