Wow, you beat me to this! This needs to be commercialized. It would allow many, older, experienced welders to return to work since many have lost their vision. Additionally, it would protect the eyes of younger welders since all of the light is essentially blocked and prevented from damaging the eyes.
Hey Thad, our lab here is creating a commercial product now. If you're interested in sharing your wisdom to help make this as good as possible, let's chat: ken@eyetap.org
This is interesting to me. I'm a professional welder, or at least I was. I learned stick, mig, spray transfer, pulse arc, flux core, and tig in welding school, along with theory, blueprint reading, oxy-fuel cutting, etcetera. Had CWB stick tickets (flat, horizontal, vertical up) and TSSA mig tickets (all positions on plate), and I put in a few thousand welding hours building oil rigs from the ground up out in Saskatchewan. But then I moved back to my hometown in Ontario where there wasn't much welding work, and I got rusty from the time off. So I moved to Toronto where there's more work, got a manufacturing job mig welding in Mississauga, couldn't see what I was doing because my vision has deteriorated more than I realized, and was basically fired on my second day, although they characterized it as "walked off the job". I'd set my helmet to 9.5, but still couldn't see properly. Kind of depressing, and also annoying having a bunch of guys smirking because they think I'm a lousy welder, when I'm probably a better welder than most of them, or at least as good provided I can actually see more than just a blinding light. The sort of welding at the shop was piece work, automotive exhaust systems. Pretty basic stuff compared to what I was doing a few years ago. So today I'm googling for vision aids for welders and came across this video. Is there anything like this available commercially, or is it just futuristic sci-fi prototype stuff? I need to find a solution to my light sensitivity or find a new career, which, at my age, is kind of a depressing prospect.
Hey satomiwa, our lab is creating a commercial product now to help welders such as you. I'd love to speak with you in Toronto and see how we can help. Please send me an email: ken@eyetap.org
aside from the fact that the helmet makes you look like a terrifying robot who no one would want to approach, this is awesome. I want HDR eyes...
How is this not the standard for welding? You made my new and expensive auto darkening hood a pile of garbage now
very interesting stuff, this will definitely shape the way we produce even cameras now I bet and we can learn in detail what is taking place when welding.
Mind blowing, not only for welding but this could change a lot of things in the future! No more sunlight or highbeam glare while driving, military applications. Congratulations! What an amazing project. I look forward to purchasing my first welding shield that does this. (BTW if you need welders for testing, I live in the GTA and would work for free!)
There is so much awesome sauce in this.
So for the layman (me) does this simply mean you can now look at what you are welding, more clearly? Is that the thing I am watching happen?
Are you guys still working on commercializing this? Something like this is really needed.
I got to check the App Store. Im sure there´s an app for that. :)
It would be nice if the new smartphones could do a similar thing.
You would use one of those vr sets made of cardboard, put your phone in it and use it as a welding shield.
good work! when can we expect a commercial release?
Will there be some VR goggle type display inside the helmet? I mean, how does the welder see the images inside the helmet? I have a feeling like in this video that mirror for the cameras is partially see-through with a normal welding glass behind it and the guy welding is looking directly through that and not seeing the nice HDR image at all, or? When is the commercial version supposed to be coming onto the market?
5 years ago I wanted to do this but it's a very expensive venture to turn into a consumer product :( The auto contrast is nice but the augmented reality could be cost prohibitive and is a bit redundant for experienced welders I'd say. If you could make a durable version that's integrated into a mask with battery and with only the auto contrast for only about $1k-$2k retail it'd do very well.
Agree with the Kickstarter. Can I use your camera for solar photography? I'm wondering if it is possible to take pictures of asteroids, Venus, Mercury or other near objects to the Sun and capture them with detail without looking like black spots.
Why do we not have welding helmets with a camera and digital display?
Awesome stuff!
Come on u can do this! I would be a faithful investor if the quality was focused in practicality along with a fair value.
what type of camera do they use in that type of helmet? thanks in advance
amazing! very cool!
Hey Ray, it would be Cool to see this Video with German Subtitles.
Because im Steelbuilder and this looks very interessting, but my english is not that good, so i cant understand everything what you say.
C'mon. it's nearly 10 years since this video and 20 years since I suggested this video dynamic range compression for welding in AR. I expected to see this in Harbor Freight cheap from China by now...even with all the corruption and technological foot-dragging in US
Somehow, it's not happening still. Technically I think I know exactly what it takes to build one, but maybe the market just won't demand it enough?
When will a commercially unit be available?
Our lab is creating a commercial product now! Our lab is working on a new welding product, and I'd love to get some feedback from you to help make this as good as possible. If you're interested, shoot me an email: ken@eyetap.org
you should have put the Iron Man movie soundtrack in background to this video
where too buy this mask?
What an Invention! But I can say it will be a long time before guys like me donn one of these contraptions. I been using a fibre metal pipeliner hood for 25 years and weld all kinds of applications with many mill-specs. With my 2.50 cheater (now) ....this gadget is for a video game man...not welding
When I see this I think of Boxhead (The Keeper) from The Evil Within.
I dont know how these people get away with this sort of welding for a company so many ways to fail a xray
i am a welder and this is making me salivate
can we be best friends?
whay make it simple (with an ordinary black glass, used to look at the sun) when you can make it as complicated as possible? now, HDR is ok for (video) image processing but I seriously doubt that any welder will care about it.
So you can see the dark things and the very bright thing at the same time. Weld and position parts with precision, verify various process parameters without stopping the weld to do so etc...
wow, wtf are you saying?
Holy shit, do not watch this high.
