Flippable Prism Belay Glasses Design: Rendering and Clear Urethane Casting

Belay glasses designed by Dustin Burd before starting Lean Lines to evaluate the feasibility of using a silicone mold made with polished surfaces to cast clear urethane optical prisms with embedded mirrors. The image below represents an optical evaluation showing the redirected view through the cast prisms.

The thumbnail image was adjusted with Ai editing to improve lighting and give the studio lighting look. Any changes made to the original image have been judged to still be representative of the actual subject. If interested ask for the original images.
