Have a look at my other projects (Software)

Abstract

This is my current display-project. I'm trying to create a truely covered Kopin 320M Display-hack.
I started using one of the RS170 -eval-kits.

Specification

The display has 320x240 grayscale-pixels.
There is a very flexible 4-wire cable comming in
with GND, +5V, Composite-Video(ntsc but I'll switch to PAL to be able to atach the video-recorder/...)
The 4rth line is currently GND but will later be for a microphone in the other arm.

Status

DONE:

• it works
• electronics work
• holes for cabling and display are there

• position and calibrate the mirror permanently
• cut the edges of the lens to fit my face
• permanantly atach the driver-electronics
• make a better plug for the display-cable
• "paint it black" (tm)

• backlight should be more diffuse
• save 0.5-2.0mm display-thickness

Images

Images in counter-cronological order:

A close-up of the Kopin-display. Yes I removed everything. This is just the bare silicium and 2 tiny glass-plates.

older images

This is how it is ment to look later. (plus lens and mirror.)


This is my first backlight-assembly. It turned out ot be much too dark.
