About this page

This page documents the making and modification of this one's visor.

This site gets updated as changes to the visor are made, for older versions look through the git: https://git.beeping.pet/breadsite.git.

Materials

A short lists of the things used to make this visor with approximate prices.

cheap 3M 6800 full-face mask knock-off, 30€
15% VLT car tinting foil, 21€ for a big roll (one may also ask this one for a piece since it has a lot left over)
1 WS2812B bendable LED-matrix with holes in them from AliExpress for about 35eur. These ones are 200x100mm with 16x32 LEDs and barely fit the Visor when bent.
an ESP32-C3 for about 5€

Total cost: ~91€

Assembly

First this one removed the rubber ring and straps to (somewhat badly) apply the car tinting foil. It has heard that other units had better success by first creating a paper template to cut out the perfect shape and putting a bit of soap water between the visor and foil when applying it. Ignore the ESP32 directly attached to its exhaust vent, this has been since solved differently.

The snoot has also been detatched revealing a microcontroller taped on the exhaust vent.
There is car tinting foil applied to the faceplate of the visor with some visible bubbles and folds.

It has recently acquired a SeedStudio Wio Tracker L1, which is a Meshtastic node used to forward messages and send telemetry data for this unit via MQTT.
