This paper summarizes N.P. Travnikova's model as a method to compare average search times by military observers using powered optics such as binoculars. Both discrete and continuous scanning methods are considered for target searches. This empirical

An operational definition of ambient luminance is described in some detail for the time periods near dawn and dusk. A simple empirical model is developed to predict ambient solar luminance under clear sky conditions as a function of (1) observer azim

The Stokes method provides a seminal method for the determination of the state of polarization of a beam of light using measurable quantities. This paper presents a methodology for the rapid acquisition of the four Stokes parameters. We have been abl

A motorized rotating retarder, a linear polarizer, and a digital camcorder are used to obtain polarization profiles of natural daylight scenes. A correlation technique synchronizes real-time video frames with respect to the rotating retarder's fast a

Lord Rayleigh derived the degree of polarization for singular molecular scattering phenomena in the atmosphere as a function of the relative angular orientations of the source, scattering center, and observer. This paper extends the Rayleigh model by

This paper presents a simple mathematical performance model of the human foveal vision system based on an extensive analysis of the Blackwell-McCready (BM) data set. It includes a closed-form equation, the (ABC)t law, that allows the analyst to predi

An assessment of human visual performance for detecting low contrast targets is essential in many army target acquisition applications. We examine the comprehensive Blackwell-McCready (BM) contrast threshold data set that was acquired under carefully

A prediction of human visual target detection performance is important for many military and civilian applications. A previous paper by the authors in this journal develops an extensive numerical hyperbolic curve fitting routine for the Blackwell-McC
