Ultra realistic Fursuit eyes.
10 years ago
:icon/ozfurs:
On my endless task re making realisim for realsism in fursuits I have been concerntrating on the eyes at the moment.
One of the issues with eyes is that in real life they are the windows to our souls. The pupil expand and dialate in response to moods. The Colors can change too.
But with a fursuit eye it is fixed - and after a few moments the 'magic' of talking with a anthro0critter dissolvwsa to talkng to someing in a suit.
Here is an experiment that I have made that can maybe overdcome that.
This is the link to the main page and there is a video there too showing them in operation. I am using hemispheres as I want the to rotate in the sockets (look left,right,up,down) but they can be flattened if that is not the case.

Or the video http://www.marcwolf.org/gallery/def.....aspx?moid=2013
Basically I am using 128x128 pixel OLED although a LCD can be used. LCD do not the the total blacks that a OLED can achieve.
Using a Teensy 3.1 (higher speed Arduino however an Arduino can work depending on what you are doing) and an SD Card Reader to hold the base eye image.
From there it's just a case of programming the examples in the library to get the images.
For the more comic/toony characters you can do sprites with hearts and other emblems to give the emotions.
Enjoy

Checked the links - they are working fine, however the server does reboot once a day for garbage cleanup etc. So try again.
I know the way to reply to a post, just I was tired and forgot..
Many thanks
Marc
Thanks for checking the links. I must have hit that reboot time. Now time for me to try the links again!
And I made that same mistake a few times myself.
