How Does Night Vision Work?

[@jam34786]

forgot to mention why night vision is typically green. It's because the human eye can distinguish shades of green better than any other color. Thought that was interesting and wanted to share though many probably already know. great vid!

[@JackSparrow-jd5pl]

good info

[@rick31869]

AWESOME ANALOGY ON THE COLOR GREEN ,THATS WHY NEXT TO INVISIBLE IR LASERS ,GREEN ONES RE THE WORST !

[@data4790]

There used to be red night vision and it made soldiers see things, that's why it was changed to green.

[@teaser6089]

Multicoloured night vision also exists

[@Alffraido]

It’s actually because of the Phosphorous filter used. Not your eyes xd

[@Forflies]

Sam Fisher approves

[@bw550]

0:19 Predator didn't use night vision, it detected body heat. In a particular scene, Arnold ran from the predator and fell into water. The predator was looking for him, but couldn't see him because he had cooled down.

[@kristijanmedved6066]

he used thermal vision which is far superior

[@dominobutragenio705]

he didnt seen him because thermovision camera dont see water as a transparent object, it just shows temperature of water

[@Greenhourglass]

so you didn't watch past that part of the video?

[@Gameplayery]

I got a subject ! Muscle growth in training ? Like bodybuilding ? Or how sweat works and what does it do etc

[@knightlykin1499]

As a just recently graduated private investigator student for a vocational college, I loved learning about this stuff and I'm even more excited to use it someday on the job. I love thermal imaging because if your investigating something or want crystal clear imagery to prove something of a person, thermal makes the subjects activities clear as day and great for evidence in court. However, thermal imaging is SUPER expensive. Image enhancement still offers clear visual, and is usually less expensive making it popular for smaller countries and private use. A thermal scout scope commonly used by 1st world nation militaries costs about $1,950 dollars, whereas image enhancement monocular scopes cost about $200 at your local sporting goods store in the optics section. Besides, as good as thermal vision is, I personally love regular night vision. Not so expensive, and very effective.

[@andrei3831]

I'm honestly sorry that you have so few subscribers/views. This is high quality content, considering multiple factors that make a video, not just the information. Keep up the good work!

Zarie Andrei Thanks Zarie!

[@ds-nb4ln]

There are a few factors in treating poor sight naturally. One resource I discovered that succeeds in merging these is the great gazer fix (check it out on google) without a doubt the most helpful blueprint i've heard of. look at all the extraordinary information .

[@yessir3407]

Well they have almost 700 k sub's now ..😂 hope ur alive

[@DontMatter7]

Actually night vision has been used since WW2. The germans had very primitive ones setup on tanks and had a big IR spotlight so they could see.

[@chemistryscuriosities]

Even older. Gen 0 was used by the Russians as well

[@imonbiswas4022]

Plz make video on electromagnetic spectrum

[@hojungchoi9880]

Question, since image enhancement amplifies scarce amount of light, you wouldn't be able to see anything through it when there is absolutely no light at all, right?

[@BrainStuffShow]

Ho Jung Choi We were just discussing this the other day when the episode was being edited. We came to the same conclusion.

[@z3100x]

Ho Jung Choi IR illumination

[@Ddub1083]

Ho Jung Choi Right... image enhancement only amplifies light so its very useful in low light situations but not useful at all in 0 light or high light situations. This is normally what people think of when they think night vision. Infrared or "thermal vision" doesnt see visible light at all. It turns infrared waves into a visual picture. Infrared can be used anytime day or night (although its sometimes better at night because the background heat of objects is lower because they are cooler but nothing prevents it from being just as useful during the day.) This key difference the fact that it can be used day or night usually leaves it to be referred to as thermal imaging or heat vision instead of night vision.

[@Qermaq]

samuraineko3 But you'd see theirs too. If it were a non-combative survival situation, they'd be adequate. Thermal imaging, however, is not dependent on ambient light at all. In total dark conditions, you have to go that way.

[@gateway1199]

+BrainStuff - HowStuffWorks I have a cheap pair of 50$ goggles, theres a switch, it improves visibility when turned on but it emits a red light out of one eye, To me it seems like it emits some type of light not seen by the naked eye out onto the area, it works when there is no light, so I'm guessing its a different type of night vision. Any idea what it is?

[@gregorygrice]

How do "rain sensing" windshield wipers work?

[@trym0ld109]

Most rain-sensing wipers use a sensor that's mounted behind the windshield. It sends out a beam of infrared light that, when water droplets are on the windshield, is reflected back at different angles. This tells the system to activate the wipers, as well as adjust wiper speed and frequency based on the intensity of the precipitation combined with the vehicle's speed. That's a convenience and potentially a real safety benefit when driving through heavy rain on a dark highway.

[@oceanic8424]

The video was a very rapid overflight of night vision devices. You didn't cover the essential role of photo multipliers in the amplification of the available light, as well as the use of IR illuminators to increase the non-visible light. Don't be afraid to get a little more technical. You can also make these videos multi-part for those viewers that want to go into more depth.

[@Konradios]

Take diode from your remote control connect battery (3V or less) to it. Then tape it to the camera that it "lights" to the sight of view. Turn on the camera and walk into dark room. Viola. Your night vision googles.

[@ID-9999]

Thermal imaging isnt “night vision” as it used often during light hours

[@ant420]

Question, how does a fully automatic rifle work?

[@haoever]

Anton Markovskis it works by having a group of guys wearing level 3 armor with guns kicking down your house door

[@ant420]

Sounds interesting

[@Qermaq]

Anton Markovskis It works fully automatically! :D

[@davidburke4101]

+Anton Markovskis (TGFAnton) If you haven't already found the answer, it uses the energy from the rifle round explosion to push back the cocking mechanism. The next bullet is pushed up by a spring in the magazine because the cocking mechanism is no longer in the way, while also pushing the empty case out. After that has finished, the spring in the cocking mechanism pushes it into the chamber where it is ready to fire again. I don't know the specifics for how the trigger works, but it has some sort of flint to create a spark that ignites the gunpowder, and im assuming it also uses the energy from the explosion to move the hammer back and forth. (The hammer strikes the flint which causes the spark)

[@scrit2175]

+David Burke explains why you pull the bolt back when the is gun is jammed, to eject the jammed bullet

[@Vangrof]

what do you mean by "upper portion of the infrared light"? do you mean the far or the near infrared?

[@howstuffworks]

The far infrared.

[@HiAdrian]

IR is a nice technology but it has nothing to do with night vision, you can totally use it in day light. Night vision is purely visible spectrum amplification, that can be either active or passive, depending on the system used.

Hello everyone here's something interesting, which got me thinking If I were in a room that was extremely dark, no windows, And now I have night vision goggles, If I have a mirror, could I see my reflection?, is it even possible? Could the night vision goggles prove useless when it comes to mirrors in the dark? Interesting thing to think about hey lol

[@ThomasLazio]

If its 100% dark night vision wont work. Night vision amplifies light so you need some light even if your naked eye cant see it Lastly if you do have that small amount of light to where you need night vision then you can see yourself in the mirror

[@Ranstone]

Green is the easiest to see by the human eye, so it's amplified electrons are seen long before other wavelengths become visible. By the time another color is amplified enough to see, the green would be so brightly visible it would drown it out. Are there exceptions? There always are. But 99% of the time, NODs of any quality are green. If they're blue or red, they're probably digital pieces of garbage.
