Video library / NVIS Display Engineering / Chapter 4
NVIS Types, Classes, Colors and the Requirement Boundary
Understand NVIS Type I and Type II, image-intensifier generations, Classes A and B, color requirements and the boundary between component claims and system verification.
In this 15-minute chapter, Diggy Breiling uses animated spectra, receiver diagrams and specification excerpts to connect the terminology to practical display requirements.
