About the device

                         
 A night vision device (NVD) is an optical instrument
  that helps soldiers to see when they approach total
  darkness in combat. The device is used mostly by the
  military and law enforcement agencies. The device is
  available for civilian use. When using the device you
  can see a person standing over 200 yards (183
  metres) away.
How night vision works

                         
 Image enhancement-This works by collecting the
  tiny amount of light which includes light from the
  lower part of the infrared spectrum. It may be
  imperceptible to our eyes but amplifying the light to
  the point that we can easily observe the image.
 Thermal imaging-This works by capturing light from
  the upper part of infrared spectrum. This light is
  emitted by all objects. Hotter objects, such as
  people, emit more of this light than cooler objects
  like buildings and trees.
When it was invented and first used

                         
 It was invented by Mitchell Andrew Forbes. It was
  first used in W.W II and in the Korean war.
  Generation 3 of night vision technology are currently
  being used by the military.
 The first night vision devices were introduced by the
  German army in 1939 and the devices were being
  developed by AEG in 1935.
Later generations of night vision

                          
 The 1st generation of night vision devices were
  introduced in the Vietnam War. The device relies on
  ambient light to work instead of infrared light.
 2nd generation devices feature an improved image-
  intensifier. This leads to increase illumination in low
  ambient light environment, such as a moonless
  nights.
 The 3rd generation devices now use a photocathode
  made from gallium arsenide, which further improves
  image resolution.
