My smart glass

So a long time I was thinking of making my own designed smart glasses.

The cost of components was intimidating but over the years costs were in decline with sites like Aliexpress and alike.

So I was influence by some designs especially from HACKADAY.IO few projects.

I found a cheap micro display(60$) and a prism and experience with a few lenses with different focal lengths I ordered online.

Then I came across this project (Openeyetap) which influence me a lot. and I adopted the frame design from it. then I decided to go with an Openeyetap and also design my own glasses.

this is a few pictures from both routes :

 

the real world image is Crystal clear...

 

I used 2 lenses one 28mm focal bi convex and one 50mm

 

as you can see I tried a housing with a place for a mirror and also a place for zero spy camera and also printed all the eyetap parts for future eyetap.

update to come...

Your eyeglass design looks great! We are glad to have you on our forum.

 

Feel free to share your source for optics, microdisplays, and even 3D designs with other people in the forum, they may help other DIYers with building their smart glass!

 

What's your optics design and what's the FOV of your glass? Very curious.

 

best, Max

Very impressed! I too would like to know how big the field of view is and how/why you chose those particular lenses :)

Thanks!

    Thanksgiving

    Discussion 
    Greetings from Brazil, I am from Silicon Valley, but moved here 30 years ago. I am living in a country that is going backwards....while the rest of first class world moves forward into the future. I would like to thank all the eyetap team and forum members for any and all feedback. I have hard time keeping motivated...but your feedback has restored my faith in humanity and the future of wearcomp. So much so I am compelled to keep asking questions and probing the forum. I received email from team about new design. Problem is the cost factor here since everything imported cost %150 import tax. Lately I see Meta 1 space glasses on ebay for cheap cost U$200 to $400 and even Meta 2 AR helmet for less than original cost. I would buy if I could import without taxes. I could always come to USA and pickup. So this is question..will you have a kit for new version at decent price and if so will you supply list of parts and cost of so I can compare with cost of parts here? You see as retired cyber geezer I have to think about the bottom line. Happy Thanksgiving to all.
