A few small upgrades have happened from the last update to now! For example, let's start off by looking at the new lens design!
Some pros of this design includes
- Cuts off part of the vertical FOV but only at an area which makes not much of a real difference
- Upper inner side fits eye peripherals better, meaning even better inner FOV view
- Lower nose area now accounted for, covers 52mm to 72mm IPD
- Outer side and lower side still same for higher FOV
Also it will have about all of the 2.9 inch display visible without the borders, but still will 120mm focal length lens! As a reference, I made a scale drawing of the lens and put the original design atop it! I then shaded the part which was removed in black!
When we put a lens over, let's see how much of the black is visible!
As you can see, the area in black is not visible mainly due to the fact that the area can't usually be seen by the user anyways! Going to test as the design is coming, as soon as it's done and it works, i'll share the design here! I also am heavily considering putting it on Tindie and/or Alibaba as my own store, given how well these work!
Aside from that, more sneak peek of the headset! This will be under it's own project given the extent I will go with this, but I will also open source it and possibly put it on TIndie!
