Just get a headlamp that can be angled down.
- usrusr 8y agoDoes not change the fact that the light source is very close to the observer, and to make it worse higher than the observer. Both are quite bad for detecting the structure of the ground.
- zaroth 8y agoWhere would you want the light to fix this? Somewhere else you could wear it on your body? Torso, thigh, ankle?
- usrusr 8y agoTorso would probably be good, any deeper and you get too much shadow in depressions or behind bumps, dosage matters. But you lose head aiming into curves, so maybe somewhere in the jaw region might be interesting. You'd need an entirely new approach to fixing for sports that don't already have full face headgear, but the usual forehead position isn't exactly fashionable either (historically this position comes from mining I think, where the shadow/structure effect isn't wasted when it works on the ceiling instead of on the floor).
