Applications

Night Vision Compatibility (NVG)

Night Vision (NVG) technology allows humans to have improved vision in darkness. Common applications include night driving, flying, security, surveillance, search and rescue, hunting, and observation of wildlife. These systems work by amplifying any light in the environment which, unfortunately, has the side effect of making any light sources (e.g. instrumentation, indicators or illumination lights) unbearably bright for the user. Artemis’ customers design and manufacture lighting systems intended to be used with night vision devices as well as in day time.

Where do we fit in?

We manufacture Night Vision Compatibility Filters intended to be fitted to your display panels to allow users to view them while using NVG devices, without compromising your systems day time use.

Highly accurate attenuation, allowing the light source to be seen with night vision without being overpowering.	High in-band transmission, which allows the natural colour of the indicator to show unaffected.
Highly repeatable transmission curve, all your lights are uniformly intensive, irrespective of natural light colour.	Bespoke design service to allow any colour of light to be NVG compatibility filtered.
Designed to work at a range of incident angles to suit your application.	Sharp transition between transmission zone and blocking range, which means the natural colour of the light is not diluted by the NVG filter.
Custom designed thermal stable coatings to suit your application.
