Reddit mentions of Glass Head Universal Display

the Aperature science logo idea came from u/enzo69 post https://www.reddit.com/r/ValveIndex/comments/c7gv1g/aperture_science_headset/


The Controller stand came from u/BearCubTeacher post https://www.reddit.com/r/ValveIndex/comments/ccckf2/i_made_this/


Glass head I got from amazon url: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00XQH8Y9I

Eventually I’ll be getting this head I’ve seen photos of it supporting HMD’s for years now. Currently I have mine resting on my PS4 pointed away from windows due to my ceiling wire setup.

I guess it is a simple glass headphone stand which reflects the display light.

Regarding the head stand - as others have noted, it looks like a skull. But, if you wanted a head, here is what I could find:

(there are other colors of glass heads as well)

There's this odd thing:

Another possibility would be to get a cheap foam or resin skull, or a cheap foam wig stand head, and do the "tape ghost" treatment to it (start with step 6):

Or, for something a bit more substantial, do the same as step 6 and 7, but try to find and use heat shrink plastic, or brush on acrylic resin in layers...

Here is a Link to Amazon, if you want to buy it.

I'm all set...apart from this! Surely, surely a must for us all.

I use something like this for my Vive. The controllers I just hang from some command strips hangers.

I have one of these: https://www.amazon.com/MVAP-6832-Glass-Universal-Display/dp/B00XQH8Y9I

It's actually a glass head for wigs! haha.

People also use it to display headphones, so I figured why not a HMD?

As for the riser below it, it's a monitor riser. I don't remember where and when I got it.

I have one of these! This one specifically, and man I wish I got it for that cheap....

Bought this (new) for 10 Bugs: http://www.amazon.com/MVAP-6832-Glass-Universal-Display/dp/B00XQH8Y9I/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1458474489&sr=8-1&keywords=glass+head

works fine

How's glass?

Great idea, but I would not recommend disabling that setting. I also bought a Styrofoam head as well, but have yet to use it for that reason. Thinking about it now, perhaps cutting away on the head to make an area that would not get close enough to the sensor? They make glass heads you can get from Amazon for about $35. I am not sure if just the material is enough to trigger the sensor or it is also a combination of light blockage. If so, maybe a transparent glass head could work? Will have to try putting up a glass cup to the headset to see what happens. https://www.amazon.com/MVAP-6832-Glass-Universal-Display/dp/B00XQH8Y9I/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1474999566&sr=8-1&keywords=glass+head

I got something a lot like this from Amazon. Sturdy, looks good and holds my headset and headphones :)
