Like magic the LUCY reflects an image of anything onto paper or canvas; just draw or paint over the image to quickly start a realistic masterpiece. The LUCY retains all the magic of this classic device, while offering all the solutions with a larger, more stable and brighter image. You can even adjust the brightness of the image as needed. This transforms the camera lucida from a neat device of the past into an indispensable art tool for today. When you look through the LUCY’s view hole, optical mirrors create a transparent “ghost” image of the scene in front of you reflected down onto your canvas or paper. Just draw or paint over the reflected image to get correct perspective, foreshortening, proportion, position, overlap, shape. Leaving you more time to develop your art the way you want it without being frustrated by the technical elements. The LUCY head is injection molded in the USA with fiberglass-infused polycarbonate. All optics (mirrors and filters) are shatter resistant acrylic glass. The flex neck arm is 2 feet long by 10mm thick and made from strong lightweight steel with a black skin-like rubbery coating. The clamp is made from extruded aluminum with free-spinning rubber covered grip to keep your table protected. Please WATCH OUR VIDEO in the pictures section.

About the Startup Describe your product in 3 words. Ultimate Drawing Tool How did you come up with the idea for this product? I leaned about the camera lucida while taking a college painting class, and immediately started thinking up ways to build on and improve the devise. And with some directions from my professor I built my first camera lucida out of salvaged crates that I pulled from a trash pile at work. I spent years working, researching, experimenting, building camera lucidas, and selling my various creations to artists all over the world. This allowed me to fund my efforts and test the effectiveness of my work while incorporating the input and ideas I got in the process of making them. Here is a video link to the full story: https://youtu.be/DZNRT9lNZ8o What makes your product special? The camera lucida was one of those magical techniques used by the Great Masters, such as Jean Auguste Dominique Ingres, which had been all but lost. The old models had some annoying problems: their image was small, dim, and unsteady. Additionally, a decent unit was expensive. These issues caused people’s interest in the device to quickly dissipate. With the LUCY I worked to retain the device’s exquisite characteristics, while offering solutions to the problems: a much larger, brighter, and more stable image. My model even allows you to adjust the brightness of the image. These improvements transform the old-world camera lucida into a contemporary, indispensable, art tool. What has been the best part of your startup experience? I love the process of invention. Pacing back and forth, scribbling down ideas in the middle of the night. Build. Test. Smash. Repeat. Until the vision in my mind becomes a reality. Then when people from all over the world experience what began as just an idea, and that gets them going on their own creative pursuits—the circle is complete.
