Book excerpt: In the dark, Viola sees things no one else does . . . until the night she sees something she shouldn't Viola was born with a genetic condition that makes sunlight deadly. In the dark of night, when most teenagers are tucked up in bed, Viola has the run of her parents' farm and the surrounding forest. She is used to seeing hidden things through her night-vision goggles, but one night she sees something that could get her into a whole lot of trouble . . . Viola has always believed she would be dead before she was 20, but now she must decide just how far she's willing to go to help her parents keep their beloved farm. Is it okay to steal from a thief? What if the thief might be a killer? And what if the killer threatens to come after her and her family? Night Vision is a heart-thumping thriller that will leave you breathless.

Book Night Vision Goggle Research and Training Issues for Ground Forces  a Literature Review

Download or read book Night Vision Goggle Research and Training Issues for Ground Forces a Literature Review written by Jean L. Dyer and published by . This book was released on 1998 with total page 76 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A review of the night vision goggle (NVG) literature published over a 30-year period was conducted to identify NVG training issues that should be addressed to enhance the performance of ground forces. First-, second-, and third-generation image intensification devices are covered. Although the focus is on ground forces, research that addressed aviation issues is also included. The review documents bow soldier performance has improved from advancements in image intensification technology as well as from concerted efforts to address some long-standing training problems. Training research and development issues identified are: determining techniques to train soldiers on NVG technology and its application to night tasks, how to train soldiers to integrate NVGs with other equipment, training to enhance distance estimation abilities of soldiers when using NVGs, and training to improve mounted and dismounted navigation skills with NVGs. Attention must also be paid to developing training techniques that will enable soldiers to overcome the learning plateaus and human factors problems with NVGs so they become truly skilled at night with NVGs.

Book Simulating Night Vision Goggle Effects in a Virtual Environment

Download or read book Simulating Night Vision Goggle Effects in a Virtual Environment written by Robert J. Pleban and published by . This book was released on 2002 with total page 64 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "This research examined the capabilities of virtual environments to simulate night vision goggle (NVG) effects. Different solutions for simulating NVG images were assessed. Two conditions simulated NVGs but used different software approaches. Two additional conditions simulated unaided night environments that required soldiers to wear NVGs. Four-man infantry teams conducted urban operation missions under each condition. Objective assessments were obtained on the number of events correctly detected and the average time required to detect an event. Subjective assessments of task difficulty and image fidelity were also made. No significant differences were found across night conditions for either event detection or time. Significant differences in task difficulty ratings occurred for movement, visual detection, and maintaining situation awareness. In general, tasks were more difficult to perform while wearing the NVGs compared to simulated versions of NVG images. Soldiers also ranked the conditions involving actual NVGs as more realistic. The unique contribution of virtual environments for night operations training may be at the entry level. However, specific image fidelity issues associated with the use of NVGs in simulated unaided night environments must be addressed if this approach is to be used as an effective training medium."--Stinet.

Download or read book Helicopter Flights with Night Vision Goggles written by National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2018-07-05 with total page 40 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Night-vision goggles (NVGs) and, in particular, the advanced, helmet-mounted Aviators Night-Vision-Imaging System (ANVIS) allows helicopter pilots to perform low-level flight at night. It consists of light intensifier tubes which amplify low-intensity ambient illumination (star and moon light) and an optical system which together produce a bright image of the scene. However, these NVGs do not turn night into day, and, while they may often provide significant advantages over unaided night flight, they may also result in visual fatigue, high workload, and safety hazards. These problems reflect both system limitations and human-factors issues. A brief description of the technical characteristics of NVGs and of human night-vision capabilities is followed by a description and analysis of specific perceptual problems which occur with the use of NVGs in flight. Some of the issues addressed include: limitations imposed by a restricted field of view; problems related to binocular rivalry; the consequences of inappropriate focusing of the eye; the effects of ambient illumination levels and of various types of terrain on image quality; difficulties in distance and slope estimation; effects of dazzling; and visual fatigue and superimposed symbology. These issues are described and analyzed in terms of their possible consequences on helicopter pilot performance. The additional influence of individual differences among pilots is emphasized. Thermal imaging systems (forward looking infrared (FLIR)) are described briefly and compared to light intensifier systems (NVGs). Many of the phenomena which are described are not readily understood. More research is required to better understand the human-factors problems created by the use of NVGs and other night-vision aids, to enhance system design, and to improve training methods and simulation techniques.
