Thermal imaging binoculars
AR-049-02Thermal imaging binoculars, 75 mm with rangefinder
Armenian documentation: ԱՐ-049-02
The device is a lightweight optoelectronic observation system intended for daytime and nighttime observation, target detection, and identification. The system includes high-resolution daylight and thermal-imaging cameras and a laser rangefinder.
- Thermal focal length
- 75mm
- Rangefinder
- 4 000m
- Day channel
- 5.1MP
Highlights
- Vanadium oxide uncooled microbolometer detector
- 5-megapixel progressive CMOS detector
- Object recognition and tracking
- IP67 protection
Disciplines involved
- 01Optics and optoelectronics
- 02Precision mechanics and manufacturing
- 03Electronics hardware
- 04Embedded systems and firmware
The same discipline mix compressed into a hand-held envelope, where optical packaging, thermal management and power budget all have to be solved together.
