Product Features

Three Major Image Processors, Image Computing Capabilities Increased by 66.6%

The collaborative work of three image processors—a general-purpose FPGA public version, a customized Falcon 2 ASIC, and AI {Det} super-resolution—and a 66.6% increase in computing power not only enhances the focus of target heat sources within the image, but also sharpens the overall image quality, enhancing the accuracy and user experience of thermal imaging observations.

20mk High Thermal Sensitive Core

The 20mk high-sensitivity thermal core can capture subtle temperature differences as low as 0.02°C. Even in dense forests, low light at night, or environments with small temperature differences, it can clearly highlight heat source targets and accurately lock onto heat sources, making observation more reliable and target finding easier.

Eagle+3.0 Algorithm, Accurately Identifying Target Heat Sources

The Eagle+ 3.0 algorithm intelligently eliminates false targets and can intelligently identify and calibrate real heat sources in complex environments, making the target heat source more prominent. The heat source is larger and brighter than similar thermal imaging products.

50hz Outdoor Maximum Frame Rate, Smooth Picture Without Lag

Thanks to its exclusive 50Hz frame rate technology, thermal imaging remains smooth even when X³ super-resolution mode is enabled. Combined with a non-blocking algorithm and wireless image transmission module, it enables smooth, lag-free vehicle tracking in the field, accurately capturing high-speed moving targets with “locate and lock” functionality, ensuring no details are missed.

Car Search Zero Delay

The wireless image transmission module enables delay-free vehicle tracking – the image is synchronized with the vehicle’s movement and target location, eliminating lags and preventing missed heat sources. It also offers strong anti-interference capabilities, stable outdoor image transmission, and improved vehicle tracking efficiency and accuracy.

600pro Distance Measurement King, Precise Dynamic Distance Measurement

Paired with the Rangefinder 600 Pro, it supports 600m of dynamic continuous ranging with an accuracy of 0.1m, enabling precise distance determination and navigating complex terrain for sports tracking or outdoor vehicle patrols. It also features an independent power supply for stability, and a real-time independent digital display for quick access to critical data, improving efficiency.

10mm Standalone Slr Lens

The f/0.8 high-energy lens allows for clear and sharp thermal imaging even in complex environments like low-light jungles. The focus-adjustable alloy structure allows for flexible adaptation to both near and far observation needs. Whether tracking targets in the jungle or detecting long distances on the plains, it balances image quality and device reliability, making it easy to cope with diverse outdoor terrains.

NTSC>85%，360° Rotating Ultra-clear Screen

The 5-inch ultra-clear screen can not only rotate 360 degrees, but can also be controlled by fingertip touch. The viewing area is increased by 29.4% compared to other products, and the NTSC color gamut exceeds 85%, ensuring that every pixel captured by the 20mK Ares detector can be perfectly presented.

Shutterless Algorithm

The shutterless algorithm eliminates the interruption of traditional shutter calibration. Combined with the transplanted professional thermal aiming algorithm and zero-stuttering performance, users can observe or lock onto targets without any screen freezes or interruptions. It can continuously capture heat source dynamics while accurately aiming at the target, making it especially suitable for scenarios requiring a continuous image, such as field tracking and emergency observation.

Four Seasons AI Mode

Four-season AI modes are precisely adapted for both winter and summer scenes. Green-Eye mode in winter adapts to snowy environments and avoids distracting reflections, while Red-Eye mode in summer highlights heat sources in dense vegetation, achieving both clear images and prominently highlighted targets. Without the need to manually switch settings, outdoor target finding and observation is worry-free, making them easier to spot in both winter and summer.

Super Bird Watching Technology, True Zero Sky Effect

Thermal imaging’s “Zero Sky Effect” uses “Super Birdwatching 3.0” technology to filter out sky thermal interference, solving the problem of confusion between birds and the sky background in traditional thermal imaging. It can clearly highlight bird heat signals and improve birdwatching efficiency and experience.

1000 Meters Ultra-long Night Vision

The 1000-meter ultra-long-range night vision function can clearly detect heat sources and objects thousands of meters away in complete darkness. Whether observing distant movements while camping at night, tracking targets in the wild, or keeping an eye out for distant obstacles while traveling at night, you’re no longer limited by short-range vision. This function avoids the blind spots of short-range night vision while enabling early detection of distant situations, making outdoor activities safer and target finding more efficient.

X³ Ultra High Resolution

Adopting an independent AI{Det} super-resolution image processor, it fully unleashes the X³ super-resolution algorithm, increasing the resolution to 512×384 and doubling the clarity.

All-terrain Detection

The all-terrain detection capability can adapt to different terrains such as dense forests, mountains, and plains. Whether it is observing surrounding movements and avoiding potential risks while camping, or penetrating environmental interference and locking targets during night search and rescue, it is not restricted by terrain and can meet different outdoor needs.

Intelligent Burn Prevention

The Smart Shield feature intelligently identifies burn-prone environments like strong light and high temperatures and automatically activates a protection mechanism to prevent damage to the lens or internal components. This eliminates the need for frequent manual adjustments to protection settings. This allows the device to maintain stable operation and uninterrupted observation in complex environments like fires and direct sunlight, providing reliable protection and continuous observation support for outdoor operations and emergency rescue scenarios.

FAQ

How effective is this thermal imager?

The effect is very good, the picture is very clear, and the price is high. Its 512×384 resolution and 20mk thermal sensitivity make it possible to see clearly even in dark environments.

Can you see the fish in the water?

Thermal imaging detects infrared radiation based on temperature differences in an object. Water strongly absorbs far-infrared radiation, making it difficult for it to penetrate. Furthermore, the body temperature of fish is very close to that of the surrounding water, with no significant temperature difference between the two. Therefore, thermal imaging cameras cannot effectively identify fish in water.

Can I see through the wall?

Thermal imagers cannot penetrate walls and can only detect temperature differences on the wall surface.
