From the project

Sending video over light by modulating an analog RCA signal through a visible laser beam.

LYME is a fully custom, free-space optical (FSO) link that transmits a real-time analog video signal across open air on a modulated laser beam. Instead of sending digital bits, the laser's brightness is amplitude-modulated to follow a standard Composite Video (CVBS) waveform, proving that basic analog hardware — a single transistor on the transmit side and one op-amp on the receive side — can carry the ~5 MHz of bandwidth that live video demands.
