Visual and Optical Analyses of XM-29 and M-24 Protective Masks.

Abstract

USAARL was tasked to provide medical guidance and assessment relative to visual and optical aspects in the development of the XM-29 protective mask. In fulfillment of this responsibility, complete optical and visual tests have been completed on the new mask prior to its validation. To provide baseline and comparison information, identical optical testing was also performed on the M-24 aviator's protective mask, and visual performance testing was completed with the XM-29 mask, the M-24 mask, and unobstructed vision.
