[0054] The advantages of the present invention: 1. The all-weather simulated night vision training system is consistent or basically consistent with the real night vision equipment in appearance. It adopts monocular intake, binocular observation, software system to convert images, LCD screen display, and can be compared with The adjustable full-coverage headset is connected to become a training device that completely imitates real night vision equipment, and has the fidelity similar to actual night vision equipment.
[0055] 2. A complete all-weather simulated night vision training system, including external wearable devices and built-in pre-designed various virtual night vision training equipment, as well as real real-time augmented reality observation scenes, can be used out of the box, no other Additional equipment support (including: computer, external power supply, etc.), to meet the convenience, humanization, and real training needs.
[0056] 3. In VR (virtual reality) mode, when the user wears the device for simulation training, in addition to standing head-up, he can observe the imaging effects of various simulated night vision devices under different lighting levels. Actions that affect the viewing angle during night vision goggles can make corresponding changes in viewing angle. For example, when the user looks up, he can see a high field of view; when he turns his head to the left (right), he can see the left (right) field of view; The time horizon can be moved down as a whole. At the same time, it adopts a built-in method to display different night vision observation scenarios, so that users are not restricted by venues, weather conditions and time, and can simulate wearing night vision devices for adaptive training at any time. Especially in VR (virtual reality) mode, through the scene adjustment key, it can simulate and display the observation situation of two or more different observation equipments of low-light night vision and infrared night vision under a variety of night environmental conditions. Night vision observation equipment, multiple observation scenarios, simple and convenient software operation.
[0057] 4. In the AR (augmented reality) mode, it can transform the night vision function of the real environment by enhancing the conversion of the real environment in the daytime environment, and realize the real situation that simulates the actual observation at night and reflects the real situation in real time, and achieves the performance of wearing night vision training equipment during the day. The effect of training under night vision conditions can realize observation, search, and combat. It really solves the problem that night vision training is not implemented.
[0058] 5. The AR/VR mode switch key 6 is adopted, which can easily realize the training from the virtual reality state to the augmented reality state. In this way, it not only realizes night vision training under all-weather conditions, but also solves the training problems of multiple night vision equipment and multiple observation scenes. It has the characteristics of one machine with multiple uses, one scene with multiple situations, simple and convenient operation, and convenient function conversion.
[0059] 1. Innovated the practical application of VR (virtual reality) technology in military and police actual combat training. All-weather simulation of night vision training system, create various military and police training scene models in Autodesk 3DS MAX software system, and use filter technology to virtually set up multiple battlefield scenes, multiple weather conditions, and multiple tactical situations when the scene model is rendered The effect of night vision observation truly solves the problem that the military and police conduct night vision training without being restricted by venue and weather conditions and night vision equipment, so that they can carry out night vision equipment simulation observation adaptability training anytime and anywhere. It fills the gap of the military and police using VR (virtual reality) technology to achieve night vision training.
[0060] 2. Created the practical application of AR (augmented reality) technology in military and police actual combat training. At present, the number of night vision equipment equipped by the military and police in our country is relatively small and expensive, and the real night vision device can only observe the night vision effect when the illumination is low at night, which greatly restricts the use of night vision equipment for training. The all-weather simulation night vision training system uses AR (augmented reality) technology to render the night vision observation scene in real time based on the real scene of the day. It not only solves the problem of training equipment, but also solves the problem of training time. It is a time for night vision training. Groundbreaking reform and innovation. There is no domestic precedent for this kind of exploration, and there is no realistic product abroad. This is our first exploration.
[0061] 3. Explore the subject of multi-purpose, virtual reality and augmented reality technology, and apply it to actual combat training. The all-weather simulation night vision training system includes two main technical functions: VR (virtual reality) technology and AR (augmented reality) technology. In terms of VR (virtual reality) technology, it adopts one-click multiple virtual scenes, one scene multiple virtual situations, and according to night vision training, it may be under different weather conditions such as rain and fog at night, sunny weather, moonlight weather and starlight weather. Training scenarios, set a variety of weather conditions for training. In terms of AR (augmented reality) technology, a video enhancement algorithm is used to perform technical conversion of the real scene in real time, and the night vision observation effect can be directly observed through the observation eyepiece 12. And use simulation to display different weather conditions, such as observation scenarios under rainy, foggy, and starlight conditions. Realize the training of night courses in daytime, and solve the problem of night training. The combination of VR (virtual reality) technology and AR (augmented reality) functions fundamentally solves the all-weather, multi-functional, near-real combat simulation training, which can greatly improve the quality of training.
[0062] 4. Innovated the methods of real-time observation and real-time video recording, individual training and post-training guidance. In the AR mode, in order to facilitate the commander and combatants to review and summarize the training content after the training is completed, the system uses imaging recording technology and innovates the real-time recording function in the AR training mode. Each soldier can turn on the video recording function to record the training situation during AR training. After the end, the user's tactical actions and observations can be carefully checked through the playback, which realizes the on-site training and post-training summary, individual training and training guidance The organic combination can effectively improve the training effect.
[0063] The method of use of the present invention: press the power button to turn on the device, adjust the headset to fix the device on the head, turn down part of the main body shell 1, and fine-tune the position of the main body shell 1 so that the eyes can clearly see the video image. Use the AV/VR switch key to select the current training mode.
[0064] In VR mode, the user realizes real-time switching between different scenes and different observation points in the same scene through the VR scene switching key 5. The user can arbitrarily switch the observation angle to observe in each scene and observation point by raising or turning the head, as if being on the scene. If users wear headphones, they can also hear sound effects in the corresponding scene, including sound effects such as airplanes, tanks, and soldiers patrolling. In this mode, the front camera will be turned off.
[0065] In AR mode, the front camera will automatically turn on. The user can see the real scene at hand that has been enhanced by real-time processing by the device, and can observe the effect of night vision observation at night even during the day. With the fixation of the full-coverage headset, the user does not need to support the main body shell 1 by hand, and can perform motion training while wearing the device. In AR mode, after pressing AR video button 7, the current situation will be recorded in real time, and the recording time can be up to one hour. After the recording is completed, the video can be transmitted to the computer through the data interface for further actual analysis.
