Currently in the process of designing and creating my own DIY AR glasses, from the parts of a Samsung S10+ Phone.

<aside> 💡 Overall Goals:

</aside>

• Optimizing for accessibility and affordability
  • old phones can be repurposed as highly functional parts for AR glasses
  • the optical system is designed to use minimal and accessible parts
• Highly functional
  • most DIY implementations of “smart glasses” use RPis or Arduinos, which have no built in speaker, microphone, volume buttons, cellular, HD camera sensors, and software stack built in. This one does.

Custom-made optical stack including a microdisplay, a 45-degree tilted mirror, a 45mm focal length lens, & a half-mirror prism to feed display into the eye surrounded by a 3D printed housing
