It's a bit frustrating to make a proposal and then just hear back "Ah, and it needs to do this too"... If it attaches to a table larger object, why does it have to be so thin? And attaching with webbing?? :-// --- End quote --- sometime sthis forum makes you feel like a unpaid kinda voluntary product designer huh :-DD |

Thin, transparent, water-tight, can be opened (I guess "easily")... yeah. Almost Santa's list. ;D Maybe recycle old (or not) watch housings? You can find them water tight, with a nice transparent window, and they can be opened. A typical watch may not be large enough I guess..., but that's worth a look? |

You could do it easily with a 3D printer. 1mm thickness is fine. Using flexible material, you probably can have a water tight lid. No problem to add some pads with hole to screw it to something. |

3D print something or laser cut polycarbonate and glue it up like a layer cake, and you'll be replacing the enclosures annually due to UV degradation. Painting them opaque black and you'll cure that but then the optical and IR sensors wont work. Since its a prototype, why not solder them up out of brass shim stock, with epoxied in mica windows for the sensors? Tin the whole exterior for better corrosion resistance. You wont be able to make the battery easily replaceable without desoldering the cover. --- Quote from: jmaja on February 05, 2019, 08:13:53 pm ---It will be attached to a canvas outdoors. It can't stick out much from the canvas. --- End quote --- --- Quote from: jmaja on February 05, 2019, 08:29:07 pm ---But sorry I don't feel comfortable revealing the application. --- End quote --- So, you want to cam bug the toilet tent at a festival? :popcorn: >:D |
