Hi!

Let me start with a brief introduction.

We are a duo of students Industial Product Design at Howest, Kortrijk, Belgium. For our CAD-course, we got the assignment of redesigning an assistive tool to put it in mass production or keep it small series. The anti-tilt glasses are made for paralysed people with glasses.

In this instructable, you will find lasercut files and 3d print files, foto's and a guide to make it yourselves.

The mask has variable parameters which can be edited in the Siemens NX file. There are also 4 templates added as a lasercut file in case you don't have NX.
