It depends on whether the night vision goggles are image intensifiers or the type that are sensitive to infra red. Only the infra red type can see warm objects through fog. Image intensifiers will not be able to see through fog at all.


Is night vision UV vision?

No. Night Vision equipment uses infra-red (IR) light, wavelengths of light longer (lower frequency) than visible light. Infra="below", red, or light below red light in the spectrum. UV stands for ultra (above)-violet, light that is above the violet light spectrum, so higher frequency=shorter wavelength.


What are the effects of astigmatism on night vision?

Astigmatism can cause blurry or distorted vision, especially at night or in low light conditions. This is because the irregular shape of the cornea or lens in astigmatism prevents light from focusing properly on the retina, leading to difficulties seeing clearly in dim lighting. Additionally, people with astigmatism may experience increased sensitivity to glare and halos around lights at night.


If mirrors need light to work what happens if you put night vision goggles and look at a mirror?

Night vision goggles amplify available light to enhance visibility in low-light conditions. When looking at a mirror with night vision goggles on, the goggles will intensify the light reflected by the mirror, potentially causing a bright glare or glare interference that could affect visibility. Additionally, the goggles may pick up the infrared reflection from the mirror's coating or backing, depending on its composition.
