Personal Projects
Digital Dual-Tube Night Vision Goggles
General Workflow:
Research and obtain the necessary electronics and hardware
Create a wiring diagram, solder the wire connections and test the electronics
Design and assemble the components in Onshape
3D-print the components and integrate them with the electronics
Mount the NVG's on a helmet using a Wilcox Mount
Things I Learned & Skills I Polished:
How to wire a two camera FPV system
Soldering (wire connections & soldering to a board)
More general practice in CAD and designing things in a fairly complex system that need to integrate nicely
3D printing
Using threaded inserts (leave enough material so when you install them the area around them doesn't warp)
Testing the Electronics:
Assembly:
Internals (Board Side)
Internals (Screen Side)
Lens Installation
Finished
