Journal of Shanghai University (English Edition)

Abstract

The behavior of variable transparency glass is studied, and the response time analyzed and measured aimed at applications to welding goggles. Detection apparatus for goggle testing is involved in the design and development. Characteristics of the apparatus are discussed based on experiments. The definition of nominal response time and effective response time are presented based on the analysis and calculation with experimental data.
