NEUTRAL DENSITY PAINT MIXTURES PROVIDING PREDICTABLE DIFFUSE SURFACE REFLECTIVITY FOR VISIBILITY STUDIES

At present the targets are used in connection with studies in night driving visibility; however, the method presented has a wide range of applications. In the case of visibility experiments, a methodology is developed, allowing for the standardization of reflectance measurements between the various laboratories presently involved in the field.
