Bright-Source Protection (BSP) – Highlight Cut-Off

  • Douglas Shaw

An electronic function that reduces the voltage to the photocathode when the night vision device is exposed to bright light sources such as room lights or car lights. BSP protects the image tube from damage and enhances its life; however, it also has the effect of lowering resolution when functioning except for the Pinnacle Autogated Units which maintain the systems resolution.
