Can anyone give me a reference to a demonstration I saw a few years back?
It was something along the lines of gluing a tiny mirror to a wall,
shining a laser off the mirror, collecting the laser light with a
sensor of some kind and turning the beam into sound (or some kind of
display). If I recall correctly the idea was to somehow have the
sensor set-up sensitive enough that you could 'hear' the wall move if
you pushed on it with your hand. I don't recall exactly how the beam
detector or setup was sensitive enough to the wall's location to be
able to detect its very slight motion.
Any hints or a reference would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.
