Lens Design Completed

A project log for Easy "Pancake Lenses"

Because paying $2k for a piece of plastic is BS. IPD system included.

Small update, the CAD design was completed for the lens and i'm currently waiting for it to be cut, the lens company agreed to send an image of the lens when they are cut! At the time i'm waiting to test out the lens and make the enclosure for it before I share the file completely! However, here is the current 3D representation of the lens, as well as the drawing!

The lens is designed to give a 40-45 minimum IPD, while having the largest possible FOV! If you look to the left or right, you will see the majority of the screen regardless of your IPD, with the FOV not sacrificing FOV! The lens are made for a 70mm and 60mm lens (given I am remembering correct lol) and will include a LED based diffusion at the peripheral to artificially increase the FOV even further!

The current cost for the lens should be $20 - $25 so far!
