Display System Image Quality

Defense Technical Information Center · 1988 · 5 pictures

This 1988 report from the Defense Technical Information Center, by Alan Pinkus and H. L. Task of the Harry G. Armstrong Aerospace Medical Research Laboratory at Wright-Patterson Air Force Base, examines image quality in fighter aircraft display systems for military pilots. Its pictures are plain technical graphs and schematics: spectral transmissivity curves, a contrast threshold chart with a shaded area and labelled limiting resolution, and an exploded diagram of a variable-magnification viewing system with an aperture mirror and filter turrets, useful to a designer for its clean line-drawn instrument forms.
