Technical Details

FlashComm--Light-Comm leverages the principles of analog communication to achieve seamless transmission of audio signals through light. Below are the primary components and processes involved:

Components Used

  • LED (Light Emitting Diode): Converts the electrical audio signal into light.
  • Photodiode/Phototransistor: Captures the transmitted light signal and converts it back into an electrical signal.
  • Amplifier Circuit: Amplifies the weak electrical signals received from the photodiode.
  • Speaker: Outputs the converted electrical signals as audio.

Modulation Techniques

  • Amplitude Modulation (AM): Used to modulate the amplitude of the light signal in accordance with the audio signal.
  • Demodulation: Converts the received modulated light back into an audio signal with minimal noise interference.

Signal Management

  • Noise Reduction: Ensures that the transmitted signal is clear and free from noise interference through careful modulation and filtering techniques.
  • Signal Integrity: Maintains the integrity of the audio signal from transmission to reception.
