Hyperscope

prusaprinters

<p>With this Hyperscope, the world will look smaller.</p> <p>It multiplies your inter-pupillary distance by about 2.5<br/> As a consequence, the world will look about 2.5 times smaller.</p> <p>The fusion 360 project is included.<br/> This design is in no way optimized for easy assembly of the mirrors.</p> <p>Before final assembly with the screws, the first thing is to use a glue gun to mount the mirrors.</p> <p>First the big ones. Ensuring alignement with the plastic plane.</p> <p>Then for the small ones, apply a little amount of glue and (while the glue is still hot) move a little the mirror so that it is aligned (look through the double reflection). Mirrors are aligned (parallel) when there reflected image does not look rotated at all.</p> <p>Screw the 2 sides with the "attache" using 4mm diam screws/nuts and washers on both sides. Screws should not be longer that 25mm or it will be harder to insert them after the mirrors are mounted.</p> <p>The mirrors are trapezoidal. See drawings for the exact dimensions of the model. This model has no margins.<br/> They should fit inside this :<br/> Mirrors dimensions :<br/> 2x "Big" Mirrors 35mm (close side) x 120mm (far side) x 145mm (distance from close side to far side)<br/> 2x "Small Mirrors" 26mm (close side) x 43mm (far side) x 30mm (distance from close side to far side)</p> <p>I have not tried using reflective film. I doubt the result would be good. But you may try.</p> <p>How to make the mirrors.... A professional did these for me 30 years ago... originally, I assembled them using cardboard. Time for an upgrade was long overdue.</p> <h3>Print instructions</h3><p>Can be printer in draft mode. With 0.4mm or 0.6mm nozzle.</p> <p>Use 4 perimeters for the vertical shells (instead of infill). This will make the side planes print cleaner (else you may have dirty infill artifacts appear).</p>
