    Abstract

    Pilots' night vision goggles will play an increasingly important role in future night air combats. However, wearing night vision goggles will also lead to many safety and ergonomic problems. To ensure the flight safety of pilots wearing night vision goggles and to improve night vision combat effectiveness, it is important to enhance the ergonomics of pilots' night vision goggles. This study analyzes the typical ergonomic problems of pilots when they use night vision goggles and provides suggestions for efficiency improvement from three viewpoints: performance enhancement of night vision goggles, personnel training, and use of environment and opportunity. We provide a feasible solution to improve the safety, efficiency, and comfort of pilots wearing night vision goggles.
