Nope, doesn't bother your eyes at all. The actual screens are in the back of the housing with magnifier lenses that enhance the picture. Your eyes don't have to focus on anything at all, just look ahead.
I still have normal vision out of the side of the visor as well as below the optics, so it's not like you can't see unless the optics are on.
The optics themselves are the guts of an EZVision glasses set.

Finally got around to finishing most of this up. Still need to add a few more circuits.
Yes, this helmet has real working optics with limited Night Vision. Also an improved comms system with much better low=profile speaker.
All thats left is the ventilation system and circuit board for the keyslot holes. Also have some other ideas that I map put in if time permits.

Mainly hot-glue. The rechargeable battery for the visor optics is on velcro.
Yeah, a cleaner surface does make it much easier.

Tom, I continue to be impressed with your work. I wish I could make it to D*Con this year to see it. Perhaps at Celebration V.

If CV is in Indy, you betcha!
I am constantly trying to push the envelope on what we can put in our helmets and it still be comfortable, fun, and affordable. I let our local 501st Garrison give it a try at StellarCon a couple weeks ago, and they were all just floored at everything it does. I think over the next couple years I'm going to dive deep into getting the viewplate to actually work as a display instead of having to install optics. That however is for another post one day!
