Lewes, DE -- (SBWIRE) -- 04/19/2016 -- Report forecast the global night vision devices market to grow at a CAGR of 5.22% during the period 2016 - 2020.

Night vision devices collect the existing ambient light, including moonlight, starlight, or IR light, through the front lens. This light, which is made of photons, is converted to electrons by passing through a photocathode tube. The electrons are then amplified through a chemical and electrical process and thrown against a phosphorous screen that converts the electrons back to visible light, which the user sees through the eyepiece. The image is a clear, green-hued, amplified recreation of the scene. It is green because of the phosphorous screen, which converts light to green, as human eyes are more sensitive to green light than light of any other color.

The report covers the present scenario and the growth prospects of the global night vision devices market for the period 2016-2020. To calculate the market size, the report considers revenue generated from the shipment of night vision devices to the following end-user segments:
