Night Vision CamcorderMilitary night vision goggles - Types of military night vision equipment

Military night vision goggles are usually used for artificial lighting during military operations and fighting at night. This adds to the safety of military personnel a lot, because they can move undetected by lighting tools.



The Army uses two main types of night vision goggles:



Image Amplifiers



Image intensifiers work by expanding the existing light (flashlight enemy, moonlight, starlight), so you can see as you would in the day. But the problem is that when a light source is very bright, your image is overwhelmed. Advantages include low weight, price, size and detailed images they bring, while consuming little.



Infrared Lenses



infrared lenses to convert the infrared spectrum in visible light, but at retail prices, which is low. You also have difficulty distinguishing between two objects that have the same level of heat (making it a question of who is enemy and who is a friend). In some cases, infrared night vision goggles can be used to see through walls.



Because they do not need ambient light, they have the advantage that they will work in any condition, simply by using the heat of objects.



A survey of global security says this is the downside of all night vision goggles:






  • 20/25-20/40 vision in the best case



  • Monocular vision or tunnel (no peripheral vision so you must continue to look around to see the potential hazards)



  • At the same distance, the more things seem to be closer than the small



  • The time you need to adjust your eyes when you remove the glasses.
