Abstract
A lightweight optical system is provided for enabling a person wearing such system to transpose viewed images. The apparatus comprises a removable, elongated, lighter than glass prism mounted in a lightweight frame which fits snugly on the face and is secured by a strap. The frame includes light occluding elements which prevent substantially all untransposed light from entering the eyes of the wearer.
Claims26
A light weight optical system for transporting images viewed by a wearer so as to induce at least one symptom of motion sickness, the system adapted to be worn on a wearer's head comprising:
- a single prism for transposing light to induce at least one symptom of motion sickness, the prism comprised of a lighter than glass material, the material having an optically flat surface measuring less than 40 waves so as to provide clear visual images;
- frame means for positioning the prism in front of both eyes of the wearer;
- light occluding means for preventing substantially all untransposed light from entering the eyes of the wearer;
- and,
- means for securing said optical system to the wearer's head, said system being sufficiently light weight to allow the wearer to wear it for a prolonged period of time and without the need for counter-weights.
A light weight optical system for transporting images viewed by a wearer so as to induce at least one symptom of motion sickness, the system adapted to be worn on the wearer's head, comprising:
- a single unitary prism for transporting light so as to induce at least one symptom of motion sickness, the prism comprised of a lighter than glass material, the material having an optically flat surface measuring less than 40 waves so as to provide a clear visual image;
- a goggles frame adapted to receive the prism and position the prism in front of the eyes of the wearer;
- and
- light occluding means affixed to the goggles frame for preventing substantially all untransposed light from entering the eyes of the wearer said prism being light enough to allow the wearer to wear it for a prolonged period of time and without the need for counter-weights.
