Image Intensifier Tube Market Analysis
The demand for the image intensifier tube market is anticipated to grow with the increasing procurement of high-speed camera systems, including HiCATT, which is an intensifier attachment for any high-speed camera. Instruments like these are used to capture the images in moving conditions. Moreover, the increasing contracts for procurement and advancement of night vision systems and rising demand for X-ray machines are driving the image intensifier tube market growth.
Image Intensifier Tube Market Overview
Image intensifier tubes (IITs) are vacuum tubes that intensify a low light-level image to observable levels. Image intensifier tubes are one of the most important modules of night vision devices that define a crucial role in industrial/defense/security/applications. The technology of manufacturing image intensifier tubes is difficult, and the performance parameters of modern IITs vary even within the same technological process. Moreover, test reports provided by manufacturers cannot be totally trusted because there are differences in test methods utilized by different manufacturers. Furthermore, literature sources offer conflicting claims from a variety of manufacturers. It is common to find on the world market two-night vision devices of the same data sheet constraints but of different quality of the image. Because of some reasons mentioned above, testing image intensifier tubes is of high importance for both tube manufacturers, manufacturers of night vision devices (NVDs) and final users of NVDs.
