The HKD KY-008 Laser Transmitter Module is a compact and efficient component designed for use in electronic projects, prototyping, and educational applications. Operating at 5V DC, it emits a bright red laser beam with a 650nm wavelength, making it suitable for signaling, positioning, alignment, and optical experiments.
With its small form factor of just 15 x 24mm and lightweight design of only 2.2g, the KY-008 module is easy to integrate into breadboards, circuit boards, or custom enclosures. Its stable output and simple 3-pin interface (VCC, GND, Signal) ensure seamless compatibility with Arduino, Raspberry Pi, and other microcontroller platforms.
When paired with the CMU Laser Receiver Module (for KY-008), this laser transmitter can also be used for optical communication and sensor-based projects, adding versatility to robotics, automation, and DIY electronics setups.
