B. NVG option (for SIM 7Q HC)
B.1 Description
NVG option modes
The NVG (Night Vision Goggles) is an option at order time, that can be implemented during production on a SIM 7 to ensure a
realistic night vision simulation, fully compatible with night vision goggles. This technology offers improved contrast, deep black
levels and subtle gray shading.
With the IR enhanced technology, the image is displayed with the nature-like ratio between visual and IR light. This allows the use
to see a realistic night scenery both with and without night vision goggles, without changing any setting to the projector.
Technology
This technology is based on dedicated optical filters that automatically move into the light path from a certain TOD (Time Of Day)
setting on. In practice, this optical filter comes in when TOD drops below a value of 1001. At the same time, Dynacolor (if enabled)
switches over to a NVG set (i.e. Set 3), to improve the quality level of the displayed night scener
y. As soon as the TOD value raises
above 1000, the NVG filter moves out and Dynacolor switches over to set 2, being the set with advanced color tracking through CLO.
The Lamp Runtime counting is doubled when the NVG filter is moved into the light path (i.e. if TOD drops
below 1000).
