The
answer is “Gold standard screening”. This involves
taking a fully functional “Gold standard” item,
and “learning” how it should function under
various conditions. Equipment suspected to be faulty can
then be screened against the behaviour of the Gold standard
without the need for access to complex test equipment.
One such “Gold
standard” screening system is Cassidian’s electro-optical
tester – OLISE - intended primarily for use in testing
smaller opto-electronic systems critical to live operations:
goggles, visible and infrared cameras, laser rangers and
designators, sights and image intensifiers. The equipment
can also be used to test optical systems on aircraft without
the need to remove the equipment.
Designed especially
for deployment in small, local workshops the system is a
field transportable device offering reduced storage space
and in field logistics.
