Head-Up Display
The Head-up Display is a home-made version of the displays used on military jet fighters but designed and built using off-the-shelf software and materials. HUDs essentially "project" an artifical image that appears to float in mid-air and to blend with the image of the real world.
The optical design is based on a Petzval lens with a field flattener similar to the designs used on most jet fighters and was developed and optimized using the OSLO EDU software. The optical performance of the design was validated by comparing it against the performance of the A-10 HUD provided in the book "Optical Design for Visual Systems" by Bruce H. Walker. Overall, the optical performance is very good with m...

Monocle
Просмотров 2,3 тыс.6 лет назад
The Monocle is an augmented reality eyepiece that provides infrared (IR) vision, night vision and navigation data. This project is the result of 5 years of research and development. The monocle's IR vision allows to see the world in the IR spectrum both during day and night time. During daytime, IR light is provided by sunlight while at night or in dark places it's provided by the embedded IR i...
Head Mounted Display Prototype

This is a prototype of an Head Mounted Display for augmented vision. The display uses a monocle design inspired on the one employed on the AH-64 Apache helicopter. The monocle is composed of the following parts: - Raspberry Pi model B to generate the video - Micro CRT display extracted from the viewfinder of an old camcorder - A pair of aspheric lenses that magnify the image and increase its fo...

This demo shows the new capabilities of the Serenity Engine including it's new global illumination system based on Voxel Cone Tracing. This new lighting system is capable of calculating diffuse global illumination and reflections in real-time for completely dynamic scenes. The demo executable is available on my website www.voltaico.net. Music: Koan - Odysseus Under the Old Tree
Serenity Engine - Real Time Global Illumination and Ray Tracing
Просмотров 7 тыс.13 лет назад
The Serenity Engine provides real-time global illumination through a combination of GPU lighting techniques and CPU ray tracing. The engine combines the Light Propagation Volumes technique with a new technique for simulating sky lighting called Sky Lighting Irradiance Volume and Screen Space Ambient Occlusion. Ray tracing is used to complement the lighting with accurate reflections and refracti...
