Translating the virtual world into reality, the Perspective Changer is a wearable that allows the user to change their perspective. Similar to a periscope, the device is constructed using multiple mirrors to direct the user's vision. The concept of driving the device was to create something to allow anyone to be able to experience the world through a third person perspective as well as behind them, and could become useful to someone with neck paralysis .

The Perspective Changer was created to allow anyone to be able to experience their surrounding in a new and interesting way. The Perspective Changer uses multiple mirrors to direct the user’s vision to the top of their head and behind them. It uses a small rotor to rotate the three mirrors, each of which are controlled with their own respective dials. The largest mirror, attached to a helmet, on top of the wearer’s head, is the primary mirror that generates the third person perspective. The viewing mirror is directly in front of the wearer’s eyes it is angled so that it reflects off the mirror above their head. A third mirror, situated behind their neck can provide a view behind them. When the top mirrors rotated to face the angle of the back viewing mirror, the user will be able to see behind them.
