Care & Feeding of Law Enforcement Electronics Part Two: Night Vision Equipment
Overview This paper will discuss night vision equipment. There's a lot of grant money running around and several thousand pieces a year are being purchased by police agencies. Judging by the feedback we get from users, most agencies don't have much understanding of what makes these things tick. For the most part, night vision is fairly rugged, but can be destroyed in an instant by innocent mishandling. The equipment also can be damaged by someone turning a headlight on or by some such other bright light appearing in the field of vision of a scene under observation. Be aware of this possibility, try to anticipate such, and be prepared to take action if it happens. We have found that bright images are less likely to burn themselves into the tube if you keep the night vision device constantly moving.
