more on topic, long shhot but

@Windatica just comparing myself to my anime bodypillow, thank you verymuch

>they will enver make a 6foot 2 bodypillow for ultimate snuggling since the chinese are all short

Rip the tall people dream

it's almost impossible to be tall and lonely

@Kaytee like glasses?

takstar pro 82 looks great

and dat build

@Dolan_Duck basically i'm wanting to make a really crude knockoff of google glass

original plan was to use a crt viewfinder for extra cyberpunk points but i cannot find good enough documentation on any of the common ones

new plan is lcd on side of headband and basically a periscope to reflect it around into view

i guess i _could_ just buy an off the shelf wearable display, they've gotten pretty fucking good, but that's not as cool yknow

How would you mount a crt to a pair of glasses? <:thonk:288060975775612929>

magic

it'd have to be a much bigger device for the crt, but they made some super tiny crts back in the day

the one i was looking at is a half inch crt

I do know but aren't they like five times deeper than they are wide if so

this is still small enough to build a head mount around

Neat

Post it on /diy/

good luck it sounds rad

i may just end up buying an off the shelf one and focus the /diy/ on what i make it do

plan is an AR rig

i want geordivision

so ir and uv cameras

maybe a clock because fuck it

thatd be kinda handy

I mean with the size of The CRTs i saw hat you mention im sure you could get a similary sized power bank so theres that

There was an anon with the hololens a while back who made a thread

shit is mindblowing

arnt hololens dev kits like 10k

yeah its ridiculous but it is AR

Totally worth

if app gets developed for it

i cant wait for AR to get profitable and to see 124 diffrent market places

i literally just want to augment my vision

i wanna see ir and uv and i want lenses so i can zoom in and see shit far, far away

this is totally doable now too
