FIRST STEP : CONNECTORS SETTING

I 3d scan my head in Delnicka’s makerslab as a basis of design.

Then I selected on this mesh the two closest points to ears

1 - EarsPoint (b)1 - EarsPoint

Then I moved those two points in a definied z  and x direction from ears to have the connector’s point.

2 - Connector point (b) 2 - Connector point

Then I set the connector position with 4 cylinders ( connectors are composed of 4 parts).

I draw the connector models on rhino and I moved them on the circlec

3 - connector position (b) 3 - connector position (c)3 - connector position

STEP 2 : HEAD BAND MODEL

Headcurves : I rotated 7 planes and found the intersection between those planes and the Head mesh

4 - rotated planes (b) 4 - rotated planes

Then I offset and cut those curves

5 - Headcurves (b) 5 - Headcurves

ARC CURVES : For the bottom part of the head band I used arc curves that i rotated in the same way than the head curves.

6 - Arccurves (b) 6 - Arccurves

 

Then I created ruled surfaces between those 2 differents curves, in order to have the headband surfaces.

7 - Headband (b) 7 - Headband

STEP 3 : PERPENDICULAR BOX

I created 9 perpendicular box that i will cut later

8 - Base for perpendicular box (b) 8 - Base for perpendicular box

Then I draw the boolean pipe for the cabel in those box

9 - cabel pipe (b) 9 - cabel pipe

Boolean operation : I made the first boolean operation of those boxes on Grasshopper

10 - Boolean for perpendicular box (b) 10 - Boolean for perpendicular box

STEP 4 : FINISHING IN RHINO

I bake the headbands and the perpendicular boxes on Rhino and i did the finishing of those pieces in Rhino. Finally I re-import the finish pieces on grasshopper and convert them into mesh and join them in one mesh in order to send this model to 3D Printing.
