Fresnel lens OLED magnifier

Open MrSVCD opened this issue 1 year ago • 1 comments

I decide to sculpt a 3D print for using a credit card sized Fresnel lens to magnify a 0.96" OLED. https://github.com/MrSVCD/CardDisplay I am working on the documentation but if you can't wait: measure the length between the lens and OLED that is comfortable for you to view and print the back piece closest to you measurement.

I printed first a 80mm version but I got a headache as soon as I looked at it so I printed a 60mm version and the headache disappeared. Another thing I noticed is that reflections in the funnel of the back piece is very distracting so print it in a matte color, I had natural PLA and it works well.

Edit: Print and Build instructions written.

I have made a repository to collect links to accessories for PicoRX builds, for example my 3D model mentioned above.

My hope is that people will tell me about their accessories so I can add them to the list.
