Durovis Dive – 2D-modification

Durovis Dive 7 for tablets

removed the original lenses, easy pull out
added wooden cubes with borehole, left and right, glued with special plastic glue
used brass threaded rods and brass screws and washers
some foam styropor
wooden stripes with boreholes
some rubber gum to prevent slidings..
used +5 dioptrien glasses http://www.sehhelfer.de/index.php?searchparam=LUL0486&cl=search&send=Suchen
magnification x2,25 dioptrien +5.0, ca. 16 Euro
ZEISS USB head^tracker at right side (goes to pc, from there via usb serial to arduino to ps4)
USB OTG + USB Ethernet adaptor from „plugable“ + 5 meters high flexible ethernet cable
no additional power cord.. but could be done, because sony z3 tablet has an extra power connector

advantages:

2D view HMD is possible

disadvantages:

the weight could be less, own 3D printing
sometimes fogging from nose breathing, sweating,
more comfort would be nice

next steps could be:

get rid of PS4 video compression lag
– use display with direct HDMI input..
– or use PC/Laptop with nvidias GTX grafic card for better video encoding and streaming
– or use PC direct USB thethering ( like seen with Trinus VR)
