   . We are developing a technique of Arm Length Stabilization (ALS) for advanced LIGO. The technique employs two auxiliary green lasers at each end of the arm. Basically these lasers are able to sense the displacement of the each arm independently on the main laser, eventually make full lock acquisition of advanced interferometer more robust and reliable.
