Sonic Light Lab - Light Modulator - Send music through the air on a beam of light
Sonic Light Lab – Transmit Music with Light!
Experience the magic of sending music through the air — on a beam of light!
With the Sonic Light Lab, you’ll build a real working device that transmits sound using light instead of wires.
Your music signal powers a bright LED, turning the music into tiny changes in light. Shine the light across the room onto a solar cell, and watch (and hear!) as the sound is captured, amplified, and played back through a speaker!
This isn’t just a fun project — it’s a real-world demonstration of how light can carry information, just like in fibre optics and laser communications.
Perfect for:
🎵 Budding inventors and science lovers
🔬 School projects and STEM learning
💡 Curious minds who want to see physics and engineering in action!
What you’ll learn:
-
How sound waves can be turned into electrical signals
-
How light can be modulated to carry information
-
How solar cells and amplifiers work together to recover a signal
-
Real-world technologies like fibre optics and optical communication!
We've created a few variations on this product because may of our customers already have our High School Electricity Sets which include most of the components required.
Variation 1 - The complete Sonic Light Lab - Everything is included.
Variation 2 - Partial Kit - If you already own our High School Electricity Set
Variation 3 - Semi-Partial Kit - If you already own our High School Electricity Set AND one of our solar panels
Send your music on a beam of light — and discover the science behind tomorrow’s technology!
