The objective of this project is to measure current along power lines and other power monitoring applications. This device projects polarized light in the presence of a magnetic field near an electrical system. Based on how the light interacts with a magnetic field, data on the amount of electrical current that created the magnetic field can be obtained and sent to a remote device.
This is the currently developed optical setup for the device:
