Moonshake3D renders VR headset with Raspberry Pi

Virtual reality has gotten much existent and breathtaking arsenic Denmark-based CGI creator Moonshake3D renders a hyperrealistic VR headset that runs connected card-sized Raspberry Pi. The three-dimensional stereo-immersive 64-bit video crippled system, which mightiness beryllium dubbed ‘Stereoscopic Display System,’ flashes graphic games of the aureate days close earlier the user’s eyes, each the portion making them look rather fashionable with the woody plan lining coupled with a transparent casing for the physics board.

The adjustable headband is cushioned with brushed padding, and a portion of fuzzy microfiber cloth protects the skull portion providing ample abstraction truthful it won’t strain the user’s head. The Raspberry Pi-powered VR headset is purely invented successful Blender, alluding to the designer’s regular grind of being a CGI fellow. Some mightiness hold for Moonshake3D’s VR headset, but whether oregon not the CGI artist’s plan volition beryllium produced is inactive up successful the air.

Inspired by the movie props of the 80s & 90s

Moonshake3D started learning Blender 3 years ago. He had worked with graphic plan and photography years earlier that and realized that 3D seemed to beryllium the cleanable premix betwixt the two, a knack he’s much than blessed to task into. He finds his inspiration from movie props and exertion successful the 80s and 90s for his VR headset moving connected Raspberry Pi. He worked connected his task for a month, a broadside task to refuel his originative engine.

‘I really wanted to marque a clump of ace elaborate textures, but I truly liked the mode the wood stood retired successful opposition to the clean-off achromatic case. I effort to premix lukewarm and acold materials successful astir of my enactment arsenic they complement each different nicely,’ he says. Touching connected the materials, astir of the objects helium utilized for the VR headset, including the Raspberry Pi, came from his ain handiwork.

‘But I person utilized materials from Poliigon for immoderate of the fabric,’ he shares. ‘The texture is simply a elemental cloth PBR worldly with a particle strategy emitting the fibers.’ Everything astir Moonshake3D’s instauration is made connected Blender but for the logo connected the headband. He says helium utilized Adobe SP for that, but the remainder is rendered with Cycles.
