[sci.electronics] Fiber-opticless communication?

sprouse@cory.Berkeley.EDU (Steven Sprouse) (12/03/88)

I need information on the feasability of fiberopticless communication
over relatively small distances, 3ft-6ft. Can a laser diode drive a photo
diode if all ambient light is removed from the transmission cavity? Has
anyone ever done anything like this?
