To determine field of view, do this; While you are wearing the nods - 1) Have a buddy stand at a known distance (this is arbitrary, but pick something easy like 25, 50, or 100 yards) from you and call the distance Z. 2) Have him walk to the left and have him stop where he is at just before he disappears from your field view. 3) Have him plant a marker. 4) Repeat step 2 but have him go to the right of your field of view. 5) Measure the distance between the two markers, and call it X. 6) Use the following equation to get the angle (Theta) of the field of view: Theta = 2*arctan(X/(2*Z)) * 57.29578 This gives you the angular field of view in degrees.

Top tip. Use a sacrificial bolt and washer into the threaded insert. Heat the bolt, washer and nut assembly with a soldering iron and let cool before removing the bolt and washer. The washer aids in getting the insert flush, the bolt prevents thread damage through melting material getting up in there.
You can find blemished or simply a la carte analog image intensifier tubes from about $500 - $1500 depending on quality ( I see MX11769 Gen 2+ intensifiers for $350 right now, and mx-10160 gen 3 for $1200). It's quite a bit more expensive than this, but conceivably, you could get a "real" 3D-printed pano setup for the price of a high quality pvs-14 instead of $40,000.
@@GarySanderson yeah good point. Pano already has the problem of non adjustable diopters, instead having a set of interchangeable lenses, which are oddly shaped because they bridge a pair of tubes each. Any homemade solution for the lens would be less than ideal, but hey if it even worked kinda good enough that would be sweet
fantastic work, I’ve made myself a monocle setup using a camera before but never thought about upscaling it to quad tubes using my printer. absolutely brilliant work, subscribing in the hopes you’ll share more ingenuity

save your money and build a monacle, countless patrols and experience on night patrols using a pvs14 single monacle, your non firing eye will adapt to the dark, more importantly comfort, all that added weight with a 4 lens device is not fun
What's weird about this video is that i was thinking about doing the same thing but with weather/impact proofing and infrared sensors instead. I was also thinking about designing some builtin laser range finders that can work with OpenCV to highlight, outline or box targets from a distance.
I really think this needs to be revisited with some of the HD fpv cams that have become popular and cheap The display and video processor is really where the attention needs focused. if you can source a good quality hd screen for cheap, were in some business here.
Awesome video. I always thought it'd be cool the have a less expensive way to get into pano night vision just to play around with it. I wonder if you were to take the lenses from a TMC/FMA GPNVG set if you could line them up to have more of a "true" pano experience.
Dude this is such an amazing video! Thank you so much for putting this out! I feel like you've opened my eyes to the massive potential to this idea. I've got access to a 3d printer and I'm going to buy my parts here pretty soon.. If you don't mind me asking, how does the monocular version feel? Are you still able to run around and shoot with it? Or is the 4 quad system the only way to go? Also what type of battery life did you end up getting with the 4 quad system? Thank you!!
The resolution issue can likely be improved if smaller NTSC displays were used. It allows better resolution while keeping the simplicity of analog. Also mount the pbcs in line with, and between the cameras. Stronger overall frame while allowing more flexibility for larger cameras.
I wonder about a highly magnified camera for looking at far things. Maybe have a toggle to switch from the normal ones to the far one, kinda like aim doen sights in a video game
I think you'd be able to get an immediate improvement in quality of the shell by resin printing or creating a mold of a normal print and injection molding it.
I just had this idea a month ago and started searching around for builds. I was surprised how nobody seems to have done this yet. I'd be curious to see how much better performance you could get with more expensive cameras and higher resolution screens, if such things are available that you could just buy online.
you should do a short side by side video of the night vision cameras vs a regular camera (like stick a gopro on your head and film the two at the same time and angle)
I kind of did in the video. I had the NVGs in the bathroom with a canon 90D in my hands. It wasn't really the same angle since it was my hands but it was the same time
Theyre great. Of course trackable mount with IR security cams can wifi connect to re-written apps like skyportal to gyroscopicly navigate and impose night viev cam over it (like on starwalk app code) onto a modified vr set with ar phone. The only drawback is that it isnt so portable because in this case headgear is connecting to external robot
There s one issue with NVG's. Temporary blindness if by chance the power supply fails. It happened to helicopter pilots back in the early days of night targeting helmets. The eye was accustomed to the light level of the screen but when the helmet failed it was a mad dash to remove the targeting screen from in front of the helmet only to leave the pilot night blind until his eyes became accustomed to the darkness, by that time they usually flew the helicopter into the ground. This was eliminated by using a system where one eye was dedicated to the targeting system while the other eye was left out in the darkness. As systems were perfected todays night systems offer the pilot the necessary artificial imaging of what was around him.
Here's an Idea! The Lynx R-1 is a AR / VR / XR headset , and they give out all the code. It would make a great replacement for the low quality screens to get the video feed from the low lights cameras to the headset instead.
This is pure awesomeness kaidomain makes a very nice very powerful ir drop in for the 6p for like $30 you can get a new light body in 18650 or 21700 and the 7w 5chip ir drop in i built it to use in the woods but it just washes out and autogates my 14
If you want to remove brass inserts, heat it up with the iron, pull it with a screw, ream the hole larger with a drill bit to trim the edges, and epoxy the new one in place.

@@JustCallMeKoko definitely, though tubes are generally less expensive than buying a whole device. You could probably get away with 8-10k instead of 45k
ey bro, im sure you know this but i couldnt see you doing it in the video of which btw i loved, thank you. i digress, the bungees on the helmet are meant to help with the flop of the nods. also i saw that another dude made a better mount for it/ it actually ties in all four tubes on the mount and makes it more sturdy. those nods are sick and looking to make some. thank you for sharing
Has anyone played around with using a faster lens? It should improve up close up performance. Not a photography person but have built a few telescopes, I think with how low the f number is already with the 50mm lens that just a little shorter fl will increase light gathering by quite a bit. Also, are any of these cameras capable of binning? In astrophotography some ccds are able to basically treat 2 adjacent pixels as a single pixel essential making it larger. You reduce resolution but it increases sensitivity and cuts down the noise as well I believe. I think that due to the displays being used you might not be using the cameras to their fullest potential anyway, not certain just from what I think I heard said in the video. But if so I think a decent performance increase can be seen.
This project has a lot of potential There could be some modifications done to it to have a heads up display for navigation In order to maximize usability there should be a digital compass integrated into unit We could grab the rest of the data needed from a cell phone AKA maybe use Google Glass
@@Vintageknight1 not for the ones he’s building cause it costs 300 just for the cameras for the quad nods but if u want normal double tube about 200 single tube about 100 assuming ur making them yourself
If you are using the cameras mentioned in the video, there isn't a zoom function. All you can do is focus the lenses. I would suggest purchasing different M12 size lenses to attach to the cameras. There are some that don't have a fish eye

Man awesome build! Those screens are so bright that your eyes are going to take a bit extra longer to adjust to the dark once you have them off. Other then that keep up the good work 👍🏽
wouldnt making a cloak for the helmet be a good idea aswell then you could make them in diffrent colors and it would get rid of the light from the outside 100% and you wouldnt have to worry about making sure theyre a fit for everyone?
Kudos on your hard work and i hope they hold up and save your ass if get into a time of need. Other then that probably a good idea to get a rubber mating surface to block the lights around the screen to your face to help protect yourself from giving your position away by lighting your face.

To determine field of view, do this;
While you are wearing the nods -
1) Have a buddy stand at a known distance (this is arbitrary, but pick something easy like 25, 50, or 100 yards) from you and call the distance Z.
2) Have him walk to the left and have him stop where he is at just before he disappears from your field view.
3) Have him plant a marker.
4) Repeat step 2 but have him go to the right of your field of view.
5) Measure the distance between the two markers, and call it X.
6) Use the following equation to get the angle (Theta) of the field of view:
Theta = 2*arctan(X/(2*Z)) * 57.29578
This gives you the angular field of view in degrees.
To get a linear field of view you simply say "X wide at Z distance".
