You could wear them while watching a synchronised rotating television screen |

I propose fractal radial rotary goggles, which consist of
multiple pairs of increasingly smaller rotary goggles
stacked on top of each other, so that each "goggle"
resembles, not a thick disc containing a prism, but a
disc with 3 smaller discs emerging from the sides of it
in the manner of a radial engine, and 3 smaller discs
coming out of each of those, etc. etc. All of the discs
rotate independently. When fully implemented, this
apparatus ensures that each "pixel" of visual space is
mapped to an arbitrary direction which is constantly
changing. |
|
| |
Isn't that like a kaleidoscope? At least my invention holds the potential for useability. |
|
| |
Usability on the halfbakery is barely an asset,
meanwhile I suggest as a modification independent
rotation speeds, directions and timings for the
individual lenses. [food for thought +] |
|
| |
//independent rotation speeds, directions and timings// Now you're taking it too far, that would be silly. |
|
| |
//independent rotation speeds, directions and timings for

|
| |
For when you're not quite up to the desired level of nausea. |
|
| |
Is the rotation parallel to the frame of the glasses, or do the
lenses rotate around a fixed horizontal diameter? I mean,
either way: croissant. |

No, why?

Bun for those annos alone. [+] |

[Calum] the user's field of view rotates around an axis parallel to the direction of their gaze. Rotating around any other axis would be silly. |
|
| |
Having them in sync would be more nauseating
than having them be independent, as your brain
would just interpret the latter as visual noise I
suspect. |
|
| |
It might be interesting to find out if you could
adapt to having one lens upside down and one
right side up though. |
|
| |
Okay, then train both sides upside down, and then
flip one. |
|
| |
//Rotating around any other axis would be silly.// |
|
| |
Rotating around any other axis would be difficult (because you'ld
need data streamed from a remote device which might have to
manoeuvre rapidly in congested spaces) and dangerous
(because you couldn't see where you were going, also, see
previous point) but possibly awesome in certain circumstances.
Maybe this could be combined with the idea about motor racing
where the car can turn but the driver can't. |
|
| |
//Rotating around any other axis would be difficult// |
|
| |
Try rotating it around the z axis |
|
| |
Okay, (+), but why would my heid spin? |

This could be marketed as an intelligence booster. Learning a new language forces new brain connections which enhances brain function, general intelligence and defends against age-related degeneration. Wearing Rotary Goggles also forces new brain connections and therefore surely has the same benefits? To coin a phrase, //I don’t have a clue. What do YOU think would happen?// |
|
| |
//what do you think would happen?// |
|
| |
Headaches. And I think I'd rip the goggles off. |
|
| |
I'm not sure you'd come out any smarter. That's a
different part of the brain that would start wanting to
hog resource space, so dumber is not completely
inconceivable. I could ask my neurologist
researcher friend in Austria and see what he says. |
|
| |
Maybe not smarter, but probably lighter. It could be
marketed as a weight loss aid. |
|
| |
Would this idea help specialists such astronauts, fighter pilots or even in disorientating situations like a helicopter ditching in water? |
|
| |
One disorientated step for man , another possible logic frame for mankind. |
|
| |
Not sure. Maybe if coordinated with inertial
simulators? |
|
| |
//Would this idea help specialists such astronauts, fighter pilots or even in disorientating situations like a helicopter ditching in water?// |
|
| |
Maybe it could desensitize people with motion sickness. |
|
| |
That's for the master championship league, drive the circuit in a non-rotating vehicle while wearing these goggles. |

If he could this would be another website and you would be
lost. |
