Product Description
This is a AIR FORCE RESEARCH LAB WRIGHT-PATTERSON AFB OH HUMAN EFFECTIVENESS DIRECTORATE report procured by the Pentagon and made available for public release. It has been reproduced in the best form available to the Pentagon. It is not spiral-bound, but rather assembled with Velobinding in a soft, white linen cover. The Storming Media report number is A777243. The abstract provided by the Pentagon follows: There are several ASTM Standards that address light transmissivity through transparencies (ASTM Standards F 1316-90D and 1003-61) in the visible spectrum (400 through 700 nm). However, night vision goggles (NVGs) are now being used in aircraft and other applications (e.g., marine navigation, surveillance, personnel carriers) with increasing frequency. These devices amplify both visible and near-infrared (NIR) spectral energy. A transparency may have excellent visible transmissive characteristics but could have poor NIR transmissivity. Overall visual performance (acuity) can be degraded if the observer uses the NVGs while looking through a transparency that has attenuated transmissivity in the NIR region (Pinkus and Task, 1997, see Appendix A). ASTM P94-02, Standard Test Method for Measuring Night Vision Goggle-Weighted Transmissivity of Transparent Materials (see draft in Appendix B) addresses this issue.
