In their words

I've been doing some digging and I found this video where some students at a university manage to detect a modulated laser with a solar panel.

So to make this easier I would be using a band pass filter to only detect the laser (which I dunno how yet, just got the idea from here) but the they mentioned it's a 1khz band pass filter which I dunno how that would only detect the 600(ish)nm laser frequency.
