NIGHT VISION
Before you use your new night vision product, let’s try to
understand how this device works and what it can and
cannot do:
1.
Your night vision device works on the principle of
amplifying (intensifying) available light. The process is
called light amplification. A special tube inside the
device does the job – all you have to do is to power
the device on and the tube starts amplifying whatever
the light is available at the moment – therefore it is
important to understand that this device is not suitable
for daylight operation, since there is already enough
light available during daytime to see without any
additional help.
Therefore, the first and most
important rule of any night vision device is –
never use it during daylight, or in any bright light
condition, which allows you to see well with your
naked eye!
2.
Your night vision device operates with batteries.
Unlike a daylight binocular, where you see the image
due to light traveling through the glass and the
prisms, the night vision device works by projecting the
amplified image onto a screen. While the tube is the
crucial component of any night vision device, the
optical parts of the unit are also very important, as
they gather the light into the tube and bring the
projected image to your eye. Since the image is
projected on the screen, just like any TV, it has certain
limited resolution…so please do not expect your night
vision device to provide the same crystal clear image,
as you see through your daylight binoculars – after all,
you are using this device in the dark environment,
where normally your vision would be very limited…oh,
