Lens periscope system
Posted: 10 Feb 2021, 06:42
It is not always possible to place cameras in front of a projector. And the installation on the sides of it is limited by the size of the projector.
I have long wanted to try attaching a periscope system to an existing projector in order to raise the projection axis closer to the cameras, and also to eliminate the influence of the projector size on the setup.
The other day I received ordered prisms by mail, designed and printed a case for them. In theory this works well, but I forgot that the light does not go through the center of the lens, so we need to redo the case so that it is 7mm higher than it is now.
