## Description

Laser Detector Module Want to set up your own laser tripwire? These little modules make it super simple. Just hook one up to your Arduino, line it up with a laser pointer, and you’ve got a working laser detection system. Add a buzzer or LED and it’ll trigger the moment someone breaks the beam. Perfect for security projects, spy gadgets, or just a fun electronics experiment.Here is some quick code to get you up and running.  Shine a laser at the SensorAdd power to 5V to VCC, Ground to GND and plug your middle pin into D2Add a Buzzer on D8 and GND// --- Pins ---const int RX_DO_PIN   = 2;   // Receiver DO -> D2const int LED_PIN     = 13;  // On-board LED for feedbackconst int BUZZER_PIN  = 8;   // Active buzzer -> D8// --- Tuning ---const unsigned long STABLE_MS = 40;  // require this much stable time to accept changeconst unsigned long POLL_MS   = 2;   // sampling interval// Set this to true if your module needs a pull-up (some boards are open-collector)const bool USE_INPUT_PULLUP = true;void setup() {  if (USE_INPUT_PULLUP) {    pinMode(RX_DO_PIN, INPUT_PULLUP);  } else {    pinMode(RX_DO_PIN, INPUT);  }  pinMode(LED_PIN, OUTPUT);  pinMode(BUZZER_PIN, OUTPUT);  digitalWrite(BUZZER_PIN, LOW);   // buzzer off  Serial.begin(115200);}// Helper to read "laser seen?" abstracting the optional inversionbool rawLaserSeen() {  int v = digitalRead(RX_DO_PIN);  if (USE_INPUT_PULLUP) {    return (v == LOW);   // LOW means detected when pull-up is used  } else {    return (v == HIGH);  // HIGH means detected on actively-driven outputs  }}void loop() {  static bool stableState = false;     // debounced belief  static bool lastSample  = false;     // last raw sample  static unsigned long lastChangeMs = 0;  bool sample = rawLaserSeen();  if (sample != lastSample) {    lastSample = sample;    lastChangeMs = millis();           // raw level changed; restart stability timer  }  if ((millis() - lastChangeMs) >= STABLE_MS && sample != stableState) {    stableState = sample;    if (stableState) {      Serial.println("Laser detected");      digitalWrite(LED_PIN, HIGH);      digitalWrite(BUZZER_PIN, LOW);   // <<< turn buzzer on    } else {      Serial.println("No laser");      digitalWrite(LED_PIN, LOW);      digitalWrite(BUZZER_PIN, HIGH);    // <<< turn buzzer off    }  }  delay(POLL_MS);}
