Laser modules emit highly focused beams of light, making them ideal for a wide range of applications. One of the key aspects of a laser module is its power output, typically measured in milliwatts (mW). Arduino compatible laser modules typically have a power output within the lower range ensuring safety and compatibility with the microcontroller board. It's important to note that modules require safety precautions due to their increased risk of eye damage and potential fire hazards for higher-power lasers.

Shift registers are integral components in digital electronics, enabling efficient data management and transfer. As your Arduino projects evolve, you might face the challenge of needing to read multiple inputs simultaneously. PISO (Parallel-In, Serial-Out) shift registers provide an elegant solution to this problem. These devices enable you to read several inputs while using only a few pins on your Arduino, making them essential for projects that require a large number of buttons, switches, or sensors. This article explores why shift registers are necessary, how they function, and their practical applications with Arduino.
