Virtual Reality Specimens
Turkish engineer Ahmet Yildyrim (Ahmet Yildirim) has long been interested in the virtual reality helmet Oculus Rift, but has kept his purchase. The last drop was a quadrocopter project through the glasses, getting a picture in real time. But here, Ahmet found that the right points are $150-300 and provide a field of view only 40°, while Oculus Rift gives 110° at the same price of approximately $300. It's stupid to buy glasses in this situation.
Now the engineer had to think: buy an original Oculus Rift kit or make analog on his own, especially since he had experience with stereoscopic vision systems. For starters, he ordered a couple of aspherical lenses 50 mm and ran a couple of smartphone and hand-held tests. The results were so good that there was no way back. Had to do a VR helmet.
Achmet added the value of the components:
- 5.6 " 1280x800 LCD
- 3D printer
- Adapter 12B
- USB - tie TTL
- Aspherical lenses 50 mm (5XZ)
- Arduino Mini Pro
- GY-85 9DOF IMU
- The wire, the foam for the lining, the glue and the other.
