Visor 3D model

I posted on SketchFab my prototype for the fold-able cardboard VR viewer. The animation shows how it would fold. Still a prototype, work in progress.

VR Mobile favorite setup

So far, after testing several VR mobile systems, still this is my favorite setup:



Wearality Sky foldable lenticular viewer, with a flat wing cap, and a bluetooth controller with the factor of the wiimote (found it on amazon).

- It's practical.
- Foldable, transportable on a pocket.
- The lenticular lenses allows a FOV of 150 degrees.
- Holds very well with the cap.
- a Nexus6 or a Samsung Galaxy7 can be hold by the clamps with no problem.

My own "cardboard" visor

With the need of having portable VR, even more: pocket-size portable VR viewer, I had to design a bunch of viewers. This is one of the ideas I'm working with right now. 3D printed and it works pretty neat. Historical facts: I found around 5 to 10 patents of "stereoscopes" that are dated from 1950 - 1960 - 1970 including the venerable "Viewmaster".

BINOCULUS


Some years ago I developed with some other friends a fold-able 3D viewer, similar to the Viewmaster from the 80's. I got some of the remaining lenses from that product and try to develop a newer version, but in this case using a smartphone instead of printed stereo-grams.

This time I used a plastic cardboard instead of the cardboard or construction paper.
I redesigned the whole frame to hold a smartphone Samsung S3 form factor. It also holds perfectly a Nexus 5.

ROAD TO OCULUS MOBILE

The Oculus Rift open the way to the rebirth of the VR as a feasible way to have Virtual Reality home entertainment. From that point some others have been configuring different ways to make the Oculus Rift experience portable. The DIVE and some others are the demonstration of that movement.


I tried the Oculus several times, since a friend has it and once in a while he invites to test some of the latest Oculus Rift demos. 

The DIVE option is excellent for the mobile Oculus version and also the google cardboard glasses works nice, but I have a personal design that fits more with what I think improves the mobile oculus version:

-The frame should be open in order to allow touch the phone screen
-Access to the smartphone buttons also are needed.
-A frame that can be folded and send via email, cheaply.
-A material that is waterproof.
-Lightweight, to allow an easy mobility.
