Raspberry Pi Zero Prism

Hackaday Challenge 2017 Section

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Challenge the project addresses

Dangerous protesters and rioters with masks destroying property and harming others, without the thought of any consequences through there anonymity.

How will alleviate or solve the problem that the project addresses?

The theory of identifying a masked person in real time, reduces there chances of them causing a crime.

Discuss how the project might be world changing.

Reduces crime, inspire someone else to build a better live facial recognition api.

In theory its simple.

Add a Pi Noir V2 IR with either 680nm, 720nm, 850nm, 950mm Filter to see through the black masked material.

Use Facial Recognition API,depending on the API use facial search matching, gather info which is shown on the prism.

Besides that it can be used for other things as well.

Publish at least one (1) image illustrating how the project might be used. This may be a sketch, schematic, flow chart, rendering, or other type of image.

Git hub link added

5/17/16

I'm assembling a low cost kit, also the prism will be a lot thinner, with the pcb instead of wires.

5/10/16 Im sold out of pre built prisms.

New Video of the Pi Prism Added new 16.5 x 38 DCX lens. With the Penta-prism the people facing you do not see the screen (mainly for privacy). Also I made the eyepiece bridge longer.

Blurry Picture taken with iphone (the screen is crispy clear irl)

OCR recognition demo above

older video of a Short demo of Pi Prism(with 14mm dia 20mm focal optics) with varying brightness sensor and prism.

I changed the design of the PCB, next I'll label it and put some artwork on it.

The designs still up for debate, the buttons will be moved to the side (soft tactile buttons). I will make a core pcb for the pi glass since finding the micro display varies for each person, currently I could shave a few mm off.

Currently drawing out a PCB design (a lot better than regular wires) resulting in a thinner pi glass.

Updated and building another Pi Prism and I still have some experimental printed optical lens from form labs (just need to sand it with very fine grit ) also I will experiment with a smaller camera.
After that ill add another branch which the Prism will be built on the Chip Pro which is smaller than the pi zero. Most likely based on the specs i might have to order a chip module and design a board around it ( ;-;).

updated the front stl (below)
Below I reduced the prism holder bridge to further improve viability
Scrapped the flexible button bridge in favor for a pla-flexible joint (To move the prism out of field view). Also a new smaller button bridge.
Integrated cover into the Pi cover stl (instead having a seperate loose cover)
Update will be pushed in a few hours as PiPrismV2

Anyone that manages to connect a Bluetooth headset (microphone/speakers) to the Raspberry Pi post the stable solution below in the comments section. I wanted to use the bluetooth headphones for real time language translation to add on to the Pi Prism.
Here is some info I scraped up

Step 1

here we have the Kopin 922k, we will extract the lcd module only.

Step 2

Unscrew the case the holds the microlcd

Step 3

Becareful not to damage the ribbon cable connected to the microLCD

Hello Ricardo
Thank you for putting in the effort. I am "reviving" this project for myself. I have small display that I am going to power with a LattePanda Alpha

Kind regards,
Martin aka PapaPimiento

Are you sure? yes | no

Martin Zwigl wrote 08/11/2021 at 15:42

As for the lense: would you be so kind as to tell me how far away from the display and/or the prism it is positioned?

Are you sure? yes | no

Yusuf BAYLAV wrote 02/15/2019 at 12:25

Hello Ricardo,

Any cheaper alternative for the display module? It is $200 in AliExpress. Could you provide a cheaper alternative?

Thanks.

Are you sure? yes | no

adam wrote 07/08/2018 at 17:12

what do you recommend as a cheaper lcd display?

Are you sure? yes | no

Hey ! You made an excellent job ! I love your work :)

But do you think it's possible to use a screen like this ?

Hello,

Where specifically do you get all your components from? This would help me out a lot.

Are you sure? yes | no

Michael wrote 02/11/2018 at 21:33

Isn't the prism act like a mirror and mirroring the display? how did you not use a mirror to over come it?

the "My open source glass" project use a mirror with a prism

Are you sure? yes | no

Jdomville wrote 08/07/2017 at 20:33

I saw a comment on Thingiverse where you are selling the Pi Prism. Is there a link where I can check it out?

Jdomville@stny.rr.com

Thanks....

Are you sure? yes | no

craigm26 wrote 05/23/2017 at 23:44

Your components lists a Raspberry Pi 3 - isn't this for a Raspberry Pi Zero?

Also, this is perfectly laid out for what I was going to do. I'll copypasta for the use case of real-time closed captioning (google speech api - or Mycroft).

Also, with chromium, there's a new nugget for dev build for AR implementation: https://github.com/googlevr/chromium-webar

Are you sure? yes | no

Can you give more detail about video module

Impressive work, really compact optics. Nice to see another wearables geek! ;-)

yeah, AWESOME project, it's a poorman's google glass.

Very nice project.

Can you give more detail about the optics / prism, where to buy etc.

Do you think this monocular will fit also?

Thank you!

The optics I used are from
http://www.edmundoptics.com/optics/optical-lenses/double-convex-dcx-spherical-singlet-lenses/15-19-9mm-experimental-quality-double-convex-dcx-singlet-lenses/3492/
its the 16.5 x 38mm FL, Grade 1, Double-Convex Lens
The Penta Prism i used are
http://www.ebay.com/itm/Prism-Quarton-Beam-Splitter-Penta-prism-10-1PCS-/282241559565?hash=item41b6e86c0d:g:BooAAOSwbYZXe39N
The monocular will fit but the optics FL may differ since the micro display size might be different. Just measure the focal length between the stock lens and the micro display.

Are you sure? yes | no
