New Technology in Thermal Optics

Online   Sep 16, 2024

The advanced world of thermal optics is evolving with new technology. There is a revolution in the use of thermal scopes and handheld units, elevating your hunting experience. 

1. Video Recording Advancements

Video recording capabilities transform how hunts are recorded and remembered. This is a popular feature we are seeing in thermal optics. The recording can be done at night, doubling the capabilities of capturing your hunt. This helps capture victorious hunts of nocturnal animals, such as boar and coyotes. 

2. Thermal Tech in Rangefinders 

Accurately measure distances in the field with integrated thermal optics. Some brands have paired the rangefinder with on-scope ballistic information, allowing users to gauge the range and receive aimpoint suggestions.

3. Handheld Thermal Unit Options

Thermal scope owners are increasingly recognizing the utility of handheld thermal units - offering a more manageable & convenient alternative. It's a matter of preference, but the trend is rising and handheld units are coming out on top.

4. Improved Resolution

Optic resolutions are drastically increasing on the market, going from 384x288 up to a possible 1280x1024. This change means users are going to see huge improvements in the clarity of their images and adding the ability to zoom in while preserving the integrity of the image.

5. Enhanced Sensitivity 

More advanced technology is improving the sensitivity of the optics. this makes them capable of detecting less heat-intensive elements in the environment, increasing the scope of environmental awareness. You will now be able to detect the heat signatures of rocks trees and shrubs.

With continuing improvements thermal optics are becoming more popular. Whether its a clearer image, greater sensitivity, or better video recordings you'll find what you need to have a successful hunt.
