This is forecast of global market consumption of packaged light emitting diodes (LEDs), alsknown as component-level bulbs, used in Night Vision Imaging System (NVIS) compatible lighting for non-civilian use, such as military, law enforcement, emergency medical services and related applications.

Light emitting diodes used in Night Vision Imaging Systems must provide an environment that will not have near infrared (NIR) noise, which would interfere with the nighttime sensitivity of the Night Vision Goggles (NVG). In this study report, we provide a detailed 2009-2016 market forecast for LEDs that have night vision compatibility in relationship tnight vision imaging systems (NVIS).

Quantitative Analysis LEDs face the challenge of creating definitive positions in the NVIS illumination market, as competing lighting solutions (technologies) are readily available and accepted. While this does not limit the potential success of LEDs, it does create some challenges.
