His cap / carboard frame / X form glasses

We have made them removable.





We  used his hat to make a prototype.
We need to see where we can put the glasses on.


I will protoype at the spot when we visite Obe.






We also made a frame out of cardboard to see if the helmet would work. But it was too big and we needed a more suitable helmet.

X form on the glasses.
Problem was that it went off from the front and it is too flexible. We needed more testing on this one.

Feedback / Prototypes

Ear piece cut out 

Obe and his mother testing 

 Prototype 9
Feedback = the triangle has to be changed so that it fits he's ears
  + They worked but need to down size the glasses

   So we came up with this protototype.

prototype with 2 strings 

 After prototyping we made One that only uses 1 string and you can make it in one go.

the concections between the carboard and elastic band 

Hier we used 3 strings = more stable 

actuale size of the glasses with mouthpiece

 Prototype 10
Glasses with mouthpiece
- need to be tested

 Next we look how we could connect the trianglure piece with the arm of the glasses.

- maybe a video of it would be great

an elastic loop so that you can put the arm of the glasses in

Putting it on

 - The glasses haveto have straight arms
    if it's bended then it doesn't work

+ The trianglure piece stays locked in and is              sturdy

The result

Next we made a piece that can hold every string in place
- before that, the strings were all over the place

We meet with Obe's Mother
