Lense delivered ! At last !

I just received from dealextreme.com my 2.1mm lense for m12...! Almost 20 days after having placed the order... As I need a second PS3 Eye camera (because my table is only 20cm high), I'll order it with a DIY lense kit from Peauproduction.




It looks pretty neat, I'll be testing that tomorrow night ! As it won't cover the whole display (32" is too big to be seen from only 20cm), I'll set the resolution to like 800*600 in native (in order to reduce the display size).


I've read in this post that some people had a some issue with the backlight (and especially with the 32LG3000 tv I've bought). It seems to be emiting quite a lot of IR arround 780nm, leaving some massive light pollution... As I don't have the same setup (he has a pane of glass directly under the LCD screen that - of course - reflects a LOT, as I only have a couple of diffusers (with the reflective side up). I hope that'll do the trick, but I'm still thinking about switching to 850nm in case that something's wrong.


I'll be posting the results during this weekend...

  1. Your table is looking beautiful so far, really looking forward to seeing how it turns out. I had planned on building an MT table and creating the table/frame myself, but that Ikea table looks too good to pass up, I think I'm going to end up stealing your idea ;-) (Although I think I'm going to go DSI instead of LLP).

    Please let me know how well the camera works out at that range.
