ABSTRACT:
At the simulation of a visual field of view for training of a battle situation, the image of the background is displayed on a TV-monitor (16) which is arranged in the field of view of the optics of a person to be trained and moveable targets are cut in in the background image. The background image as well as the target image are digitally stored and are displayed on the monitor after conversion into a video signal. In order to simulate a thermal image on the monitor, the gray scale levels of a daylight video picture of the background image point by image point are treated with an evaluation function which may be obtained for instance by comparing the daylight video picture with a true thermal picture. The thermal image representation of the cut-in targets for instance may be generated by a computer (FIG. 2).
