Night Life Viewers

Periscope-like viewers designed to give museum guests a peek at desert life. Built for the Las Vegas Springs Preserve museum.

 

My involvement with this project:

  • Machining/fabrication of various parts of the viewer, specifically the bushing system enabling rotation
  • Installation and wiring of internal electronics: an lcd screen, button, and position sensing electronics for horizontal and vertical position
  • Programming of a show controller that tells exhibit computers which direction each viewer is facing
  • Final installation and testing of 3 viewers at the LVSP museum
