In this article we examine some of the basic psychophysics relevant to amplified night vision devices. These devices produce images that are substantially different from ordinary visual scenes. Distortions in contrast and luminance and the introduction of visual interference and geometrical artifacts contribute to unusual viewing conditions. We carried out experiments to determine the effect of these parameters of the image on a highly controlled visual target detection task simulated on a computer graphics system that closely models a night vision device. Our results indicate that display luminance and geometrical artifacts degrade detection performance only slightly, whereas contrast and visual interference have a substantial degrading effect.
在本文中，我们研究了一些与增强型夜视设备相关的基本心理物理学。这些设备产生的图像与普通视觉场景有很大不同。对比度和亮度的失真以及视觉干扰和几何伪像的引入导致了异常的观看条件。我们进行了实验，以确定图像的这些参数对在高度可控的视觉目标检测任务中的影响，该任务在一个紧密模拟夜视设备的计算机图形系统上进行模拟。我们的结果表明，显示亮度和几何伪像对检测性能的降低作用较小，而对比度和视觉干扰则有显著的降低作用。
