# Arduino and a Laser

A basic example of controlling a laser using an Arduino.

## Arduino Code

Open up [Arduino Create](https://create.arduino.cc/editor/) and add the following code:

```csharp

int laserPin = 2;

void setup() {

	pinMode(laserPin, OUTPUT);

}

void loop() {

	digitalWrite(laserPin, HIGH);

	delay(1000);

	digitalWrite(laserPin, LOW);

	delay(1000);

}

```
