Color night vision system and method

A system, comprising:

• a head wearable device, comprising:
• at least one display;
• at least one processor;
• a night vision sensor communicatively coupled to the at least one processor, wherein the night vision sensor has a sensor area;
• an objective lens assembly comprising four lenses, the four lenses comprising a first lens, a second lens, a third lens, and a fourth lens, the first lens configured to project a first color image of a real world scene onto a first portion of the night vision sensor, the second lens configured to project a second color image of the real world scene onto a second portion of the night vision sensor, the third lens configured to project a third image of the real world scene onto a third portion of the night vision sensor, the fourth lens configured to project a fourth image of the real world scene onto a fourth portion of the night vision sensor, wherein each of the first portion, the second portion, the third portion, and the fourth portion are circular and inscribed within the sensor area of the night vision sensor, wherein each of the first portion, the second portion, the third portion, and the fourth portion are tangentially touching two of the first portion, the second portion, the third portion, and the fourth portion;
• a second night vision sensor;
• and
• a second objective lens assembly, the second night vision sensor communicatively coupled to the at least one processor, the second objective lens assembly comprising a fifth lens having an infrared filter, the fifth lens configured to project the real world scene onto the second night vision sensor, wherein the second night vision sensor is configured to provide a greyscale image of the real world scene from the second objective lens assembly to the at least one processor;
• wherein the first lens has one of a red, green, or blue first filter;
• wherein the second lens has one of a red, green, or blue second filter different from that of the first filter;
• wherein the third lens has one of a red, green, blue, or infrared third filter different from that of the first filter and of the second filter;
• wherein the fourth lens is unfiltered or has one of a red, green, blue, or infrared fourth filter different from that of the first filter, of the second filter, and of the third filter;
• wherein the night vision sensor is configured to provide at least four images of the real world scene from the objective lens assembly to the at least one processor, the at least four images including the first color image, the second color image, the third image, and the fourth image;
• wherein the at least one processor is configured to:
• receive the first color image, the second color image, the third image, and the fourth image from the night vision sensor and the greyscale image from the second night vision sensor;
• generate color night vision image data based at least on the first color image, the second color image, the third image, the fourth image, the greyscale image, and luminance data from the greyscale image to colorize the greyscale image;
• and
• output the color night vision image data;
• wherein the color night vision image data includes at least one of true color night vision image data, false color night vision image data, or pseudo-true-color night vision image data;
• and
• wherein the at least one display is configured to display images corresponding to the color night vision image data.
