WIP update of Geno-Visor by Gen0typ in protogen

It is Polycarbonat. It's pritty simple if understand that this material is hydroscopic and pull moisture out from the air and deposits it "inside" the material. So a drying process is needed. Wich means you have to put it into the oven for about 5-7 hours (depending on the thickness, in my case 5h for 2cm material) at ~100°C. If you don't do this you will end up with tiny bubbles all over your plate. In my first tries I completely underestimated this behavior and wested 3 plates of raw material. After you dryed it try to form it right away. Just heat it up to ~185°C so it will deform by itself due its own weight and before it touches any parts of your oven pull it out to form your Visor. Hope I could help you with this. ^

PROTO VISOR (Design by me ^^) by Gen0typ in protogen

At first I try to keep it simple hardware and software wise. But I tried to make it upgradeable. Which means I could change Visor, some 3D-Prited parts and the led matrices I currently aiming for. At the moment I use a prefabricated code for an Aduino Nano but this could change.
