Amateur Wildlife watchers and ecologists use night vision goggles to observe nocturnal creatures in dark and low-light conditions. Today, NVGs are relatively affordable, so you can spot and record wildlife at night in the remotest of places.
Night vision goggles either use optoelectronics or a CMOS sensor to detect and amplify ambient light, such as moonlight or distant streetlights. This is processed to create a visible image on the display that appears fully lit. Some NVGs have a ‘no-glow’ infrared illuminator to add light without disturbing animals.
