| ZOFLAM MOD |
|
That's not actually the name of it but I'll change it once I get close to being done.
I'm going to tease you as I go. I will say that it does start with the letter Z.
I am going to do a quick mod (hopefully) that will be what I call a fun mod. Not a real gaming rig but still a real computer. People will want to touch it. People will want to play with it. I could possibly get into trouble for building it.
hhmmmmm
Here is a shot of the beginnings.
Boring so far, right?

I've been cutting acrylic and gathering pieces. I will have a lot of crazy random stuff going on with this one.
Here are a couple things that I will be using -
Thats right - Binoculars and a web cam or at least pieces of them.

maybe a spoiler, but my guess is ripping the prism out of the binocs and using it to put the webcam inside or off angle?

My bet is this has something to do with questions asked earlier in the hardware/software forums....

I have a lot of acrylic progress now. I've got a nice little puzzle going.
I needed a piece that had a step in it so I tried the "melt it in the oven" trick. It came out ok but I ended up touching some parts up with a heat gun.
I have a main box that I'm gluing up -
And a couple other little things going on -
So many different pieces to this crazy thing. I would imagine the real one costs over $50 k .

You invented a computer that allows you to see through women's clothes? Typical Bob.

Ok, I'll just spill it.....
I am building a (to scale) SOFLAM.
It will be called ZOFLAM since I am using Zotac guts.
It will be mounted to a tripod and everything. Will be as close to possible as the real thing. However there are several designs/models that have been produced.
I am working on getting the tracking software going so that when it's plugged into a monitor, the camera behind the lens will track faces/objects similar to how it tracks targets in BF3.
I just need to gather a few more parts and I'll do another update.

You should set it up at the LAN targeting the men's bathroom. It gets bombed daily.
