The present report addresses the overall utility of the night vision goggles. Military effectiveness of the goggles over the unaided eye for night driving, close-order operations, patrol, and combat surveillance was evaluated by field experimentation. Identification of optical, electro-optical, and human-related factors was done through laboratory simulation and bench-test evaluations. Alternative approaches, as well as electro-optical specifications for individual night vision aides, were considered and evaluated. The 40 degrees FOV Night Vision Goggles provide a dual (passive-active), open-hatch, night-driving capability for armored vehicles. (Author Modified Abstract)
