Making a Laser Scanning Microscope from a Blu-Ray player @hacksterio
Doctor Volt on YouTube dissects a Blu-ray player to figure out how to make a laser scanning microscope out of it.
Video one discusses lighting up the laser and building a laser microphone as a first step.
Video two shows it is actually possible to abuse a Blu-Ray player (at least parts of it)to make a laser scanning microscope. See how to build it, how it works and how it takes amazing images.
Schematic, source code etc. for those who want to replicate the project is on hackster.io.
