Oh cool! So THAT'S how you see in that thing. What a good solution you came up with; can you also make recordings with the camera?

[beetlecat]

Theoretically one could add a recorder into the mix somewhere, but, as is, no. Would be fun though.

[lemonfruitpie]

Ah I see! Oh well, I suppose that's what handlers are for anyways :]

I was looking into doing something like this. Glad to see someone pull it off. When you say you used a color camera, are you referring to a point and shoot camera, or something like a mini-cam that you'd attach to an RC helicopter? I was looking into the later but unclear about the connections.

[beetlecat]

I mean a spy camera. Aka A lens to funnel real-time video back to the goggles.

Could I get details or a link to the specific one you used?

[beetlecat]

No it was a gift. But it's just a spy camera with a line out. very basic design. if you get one with A/V out then you can simply skip the step of using a 2nd A/V connector to connect to the A/V of the goggles. If you want a smaller lens go with a pinhole camera.

I just ran across this while look around for references, and I wonder. How do you attach Toby's head to the helmet?

[beetlecat]

Believe I used hot glue

[yashichu]

Didn't think hot glue was gunna be strong enough. Lol. Thanks!
