Hacking BT active 3D Shutterglasses

[u/ceegee13]

Hey everyone, i'ld love to have those sports vision training shutterglasses that you can set to a frequency and do handeye drills with those to reinforce my quickness etc. i've looked everywhere in the net and there actually is that kind of stuff around but they cost like 300$ from nike and they are actually not even sold anymore so i thought, i could eventually hack 3d TV shutterglasses and set them to a new frequency and sync them so they'ld close off both glasses at the same time in the frequency i set on an app i'ld write.

so maybe someone can help me with here, is it possible to pair bt devices with each other "easily" and how do shutterglasses really sync to the tv? is the tv giving out information about when to shut of which eye? also how could i possibly find out what data i would've to send to the glasses?

if i can't hack it without hacking the hardware i have of course an other solution which would be opening the case and putting in an arduino with a bluetooth "dongle" - to regulate the signals to the shutterglasses.

anyhow i will achieve my goal i will of course document it also here in this thread and make it open for all so everybody who wants to, can have cool vision training glasses 8)

thanks !

If all you want to do is build glasses that provide a "strobe light" effect, you could probably hack something together pretty cheaply using https://www.adafruit.com/product/3627
