Can you see in a mirror in complete darkness with night Vision Goggles?
Ok, so I know that mirrors need light to work correct? I have never tried night vision goggles but I guess they dont put out any light. So, if you were in a room that is completely dark, put on night vision goggles, and staired into a mirror would you see anything?
Educated guesses are welcome!
Depends What You mean by “complete darkness”. Without some kind of light, no night-vision goggle could possibly work, as they make vision possible by amplifying what little visual signal there is. No light, no signal. Now, if you have a light source, even if it’s IR or UV outside normal human visual range, you could see something, depending on the capacity of the goggles to convert the signal into visual wavelengths.

History of Night Vision Goggles (nvg)
Around the 1950’s scientists and engineers from the US Army discovered the first viable method for showing the faintest of light, know as electromagnetic radiation, that was not within the visible spectrum for the human eye. With this discovery began the journey to our modern day near daylight night vision devices. This enabled soldiers to fight as well during the night as they did in the daytime. “Own the Night” became the soliders new ability.
Darkness has always been an issue during the war, how do you fight an enemy you cannot see. Prior to the discovery of night vision technology, soldiers battled during the night with various primitive methods, including the use of fire, and more modern times, electric search lights.
But on the battlefield these methods were also a disadvantage , not only could they see the enemy but the enemy could see them, and what they were up to. Modern night vision googles make up for this by huge factors.
During the mid 60’s the clever people who first worked on night vision technology created what has become known as the first generation night vision device. This was a passive unit, and the first was know as a Starlight Scope, which could be used as a rifle scope. This was the first major practical use in the military of night vision units.
Over the years engineers and scientists continued on this technology to deliver the second, third, and now fourth generation night vision equipment, and they continue to come up with new ideas as research efforts pay off.
