Best Clothing for Hiding from Night Vision
This video explores how different clothing materials and treatments interact with night vision devices, focusing on IR reflectance and UV enhancers. The instructor, using a Gen 3 white phosphor PVS-14, demonstrates how fabric weave, composition (organic vs. synthetic fibers), pigments, and the presence of UV enhancers in detergents significantly impact visibility under night vision. The findings suggest that tightly woven, synthetic materials and clothing washed with standard detergents containing UV enhancers create brighter signatures, making them less suitable for low-light concealment.
