ABSTRACT:
A night vision visor system that is compact, light in weight, and ejection-safe, and which provides the user with an unobstructed peripheral field of view and other structural and operational advantages. The night vision visor system includes a visor adapted to be mounted to a helmet to be worn by a user and to be positioned substantially in front of the user's face, and a night vision imaging apparatus mounted to the visor for receiving incoming visible and/or infrared light from an object, for converting the incoming light to an intensified visible light, and for presenting the intensified visible light to an eye of the user. The night vision imaging apparatus includes first and second night vision imaging devices mounted in openings in the visor and movable with the visor between a down position in front of the user's face when is use and a raised position away from the user's face when not in use.
