abstract="The Panoramic Night Vision Goggle (PNVG) was developed to provide an ultra-wide field of view over conventional night vision devices, however, when attached to a standard USAF flight helmet, they alter the helmet's inertial properties. An experimental effort was conducted to evaluate the inertial property effects, and to measure the biodynamic response of an Advanced Dynamic Anthropomorphic Manikin (ADAM) subjected to simulated catapult dynamics while wearing the PNVG. A series of vertical impacts were conducted using the AFRL/HEPA Vertical Deceleration Tower (VDT) with a nominal 10 G peak half-sine impact pulse. Inertial property evaluation and impact data evaluation indicated that the PNVG would not induce neck loads greater than established VDT human tolerance values.   <p>Language: en</p>",
