Faster, Cheaper Night Vision Compatibility Testing

Tired of waiting for your night vision compatibility testing results? The NEW OL770-NVS night vision display test and measurement system from Optronic Laboratories reduces the typical time to make these measurements from tens of minutes down to a few seconds. This step change in measurement speed is achieved without compromising sensitivity by using a multichannel CCD detector. This allows all the relevant wavelengths to be measured simultaneously rather than sequentially as in traditional instruments. This new instrument design removes many expensive parts enabling it to be offered at a very attractive price.

The OL770-NVS is supplied exclusively by Glen Spectra in the UK and Ireland and it provides fast measurements of spectral radiance, luminance, chromaticity, NVISa, NVISb and provides pass/fail results according to the highly demanding US military standard MIL-STD-3009.

Compatibility between night vision goggles and cockpit displays and lighting is critical for the safety of military, security and rescue teams. Out of specification displays can cause night vision goggles to be come saturated, dazzling the user. To avoid this the infra-red (IR) emission of all displays used inconjunction with night vision goggles must be carefully controlled. Spectroradiometers, such as the OL770-NVS, used to test such performance themselves need to meet rigorous sensitivity and dynamic range criteria that few commercial instruments can meet. Optronics Laboratories have been offering the very best night vision compatibility systems for over a decade and they have used this experience to produce a system that combines all the required technical features with user friendly fast measurements and easy to use software.
