Hello,

 

I wanna make a hard helmet for trackIR with a drop down eyepiece, pretty much like hms, but like antireflection plastic glass, since my eyeglasses cause trackIR extra blips, and I wanna make a shield over my glasses, with a reticle, sort of like full cover.

 

capiche?

Fat T is above, thin T is below. Long T is faster, Short T is slower. Open triangle is AWACS, closed triangle is your own sensors. Double dash is friendly, Single dash is enemy. Circle is friendly. Strobe is jammer. Strobe to dash is under 35 km. HDD is 7 times range key. Radar to 160 km, IRST to 10 km. Stay low, but never slow.

Good for you! :)

 

Now is there a question? Or should we display our awe here? I'm really lost. :D

Good, fast, cheap. Choose any two.

Better check with the wife first, mine already thinks I'm a geek just for wearing the TIR on my headset.

Just get yourself a HMD from emagin or tdvision, and you get to see the reticule for helmet aiiming mode anyway, plus you get 3d stereoscopic graphics. If u got the cash it's worth a look. Otherwise I think emagine also supplies single eyepiece translucent displays to the military, you could get one of those. Or here's an idea: use idisplay app with an old iPod touch for a second display and make a program to display the reticule by extracting lua data. Only problem is you probably won't beable to match up where your head is pointing to where the actual target is on your screen, even if you have three screens, which is why I suggested the HMD in the first place.

Something like this?

[ATTACH]45181[/ATTACH]

 

yeah but with a drop down plastic antireflection, for trackIR, since I'm on prescription glasses, and they cause the camera to go nuts inside the zones...

 

 

 

something like convex so screen light becomes reflected away from camera...

 

 

imagine a pilot helmet, for a pilot with prescription glasses. instead of the sunblock shield you drop down, replace that with anti-glare shield....

 

 

thats what I meant "anti-glare"

 

 

and sure I get alot of talks about the looks of the whole thing...:pilotfly:

Buy a scooter helmet with anti-glare visor. That would be easy to get.

what about light filtering. cant you adjust it in such a way that you dont get any reflections from you glasses ? i wear glasses too but never had a problem like this.

Anything with nice smooth surface will reflect the light... I had some such trouble with Saitek Headset so I ended up painting the nickel plated metal bits with matt black and problem solved :D

 

you know, have you tried positioning TrackIR behind your head? That will work also, all you gotta do is reverse the pitch axis.

Kuky's suggestion about putting the Track IR behind your head is a good one, assuming you are not using some sort of high backed seat that would block it.

 

The other easy way to get rid of the reflection problem associated with your prescription eye wear is to use a TrackClip Pro instead of the reflectors. That way, you are sending the IR light away from your head, toward a passive TrackIR unit.

it also happens with clippro.. you see, if I increase the threshold filter, the camera will pickup less from the sensor, hence the shaking..

 

a V helmet would scatter the light away from camera... I might get a spray for a mutt coat and that would bust the problem. maybe spray little on an old prescription (of course after correcting the optics) then use UV light in my darkened room. what do you think?

Hmmm... Well, if it is happening to you, it has probably been a problem for other people before. You might want to check Natural Point's forums to see if anyone has addressed it in there.

I did, the only thing is a helmet with a mutt visor, the visor could be bent at center so it's like a beak that way, light goes away from centerpoint, leaving only the clip or pro for tracking.. I'll post in this thread the progress..

 

Thanks for the tips folks!!!
