This paper presents an overview of the design of a voice coil based white light intensity stabilization tool. A system is created capable of mechanically stabilizing the fluctuations in a beam of light. This is achieved with a use of a voice coil and simple PID based feedback loop, controlled using a LabVIEW interface. Stability results are shown using Allan deviations curves.
