I was talking about the zone itself, not the wavy surface from the outside of the ring.

It's leaning Green.....Barely

The human eye is more sensitive to green than to any other color

That's the reason why night-vision goggles produce a green image

Less powerful light intensification needed for the same level of detail, if you green-monochrome it.

Interesting

I wonder how that impacted the computer user culture of green terminal screens after we outgrew monochrome display monitors

It's also why the Beyer filter on digital color cameras uses two greens for every one red/blue.

huh, that's interesting

...Aren't the eyes mostly sensetive to bright yellow?

Nope.

yee you're right

To put it in other terms

The eye is best at distinguishing contrast when you're looking at something green.

nice

So, to bring it back to the original topic of 'muh green slow zone instead of starless void'

No, it's not 'green', you're just more sensitive to the green.

At low level lighting, the human eye can't see colors. Makes more sense for night vision goggles to just be grey scale.

No, because at low light level, the center part of your vision is less capable than your peripheral.

In grey-scale, that is.

The yellow spot, the primary focal point of the lenses in your eyes, is very densely clustered with cones, which detect color, and only has (relatively speaking) few rods, which detect grey-scale.

Ergo, for absolute best vision, there must be -some- color in the image.

Green-scale monochrome is the best compromise between power usage and image quality.

Why are night vision goggles green?

Not all night vision goggles are green - There are even color ones available now, however the very best ( and I say best, as it “lowest light” ) goggles are still green, though white screens are becoming more popular. ```

I never stated there were no color or grey-scale night-vision goggles available, only that they stereotypically are.

And that's simply a remnant of old-school energy storage tech. It indeed wouldn't surprise me that with high-density lithium cells, you can carry around enough amp-hours to produce a viable full-color range NVG.

But anyway, that shit be green.

That shit be greener in one spot, bluer in another spot, and I prefer it over empty void, because this at least gives people something to look at.

You guys didn't play with coloring books as kids?

It's only bluer at the dark areas. Barely.

you're acting rarted
