Description
The Battlespace Visualization Laboratory Complex uses a variety of laboratories and equipment to study all aspects of visual performance, including research to enhance the display of complex air, space, and cyber information. The goal is to enhance warfighter information processing utilizing visual displays thereby improving decision making and operational effectiveness.
Over the course of its history, the Battlespace Visualization Laboratory Complex has supported the transition of several helmet-mounted display technologies that have been incorporated into many currently fielded systems including the Joint Helmet-Mounted Cueing System. It has also produced a number of world firsts: the panoramic field-of-view night vision goggle (NVG), a night helmet cueing system, a variable-transmittance visor, an NVG with head-up display, an NVG compatible cockpit lighting system, a low-profile NVG, and a portable NVG approach path indicator. The two primary research thrusts are information fusion and information visualization.
