Hey Kids-- Anyone have any solve to viewing the monitor from all the way on the ground to arms fully extended above your head during the same move/shot? Remote op not an acceptable answer ;-) Tanks!!
Google Glass? Maybe something like this? http://www.quadrocopter.com/Cinemizer-OLED-Video-Glasses_p_764.html
I have bought some of these a while ago: http://www.fpvhobby.com/184-pirate-eye-lcd-goggle.html They are not great, but for some special use they might be better than nothing.
I've tested the Cinemizers both for FPV work (which uses CrapDef® video), and also to display the output of the iPhone and iPad using Apple's HDMI converter. They work well. You can wear them low on your nose so you can see over the top for direct line of sight and glance down to view the monitors. You can focus the optics in the monitor for distant vision so you don't need to refocus your eyes as you transition. Andy.
The other option would be to use an HDMI splitter and feed the signal into two, say, DP4 monitors with overlapping viewing angles? Andy.
Me too. Hey! It was your idea! Thanks for referring me to: http://store.smallhd.com/Store/DP4-Monitor-Accessories/HDMI-Splitter Andy.
See, your idea to use a splitter really was redundantly redundant. I think you forgot that the DP4 has a pass through, didn't you.. Andy.
Im building a head mount FPV goggle setup. Taking the small HD DP4 and the eye loupe, a paralinx and a night vision monocular head mount. Ill post some photos when its finished. This way a single op can monitor at any height or angle as well as keep one eye open while moving. Also, by removing the monitor it will take a little weight off the top bar. Ive done the setup where you have two monitors one for low mode and one for high mode, I wouldnt recommend it. Heavy.
