Thermal Optics Frequently Asked Questions

What is thermal imaging?

Thermal imaging detects heat emitted by objects and converts it into a visible image, called a thermogram. Unlike night vision, thermal imaging doesn't rely on light and can be used in complete darkness, as well as in broad daylight. This makes it highly effective for locating people or animals in any condition.

How does thermal imaging work?

Thermal imagers detect infrared radiation (heat) emitted by objects and convert it into a visible image. The resulting thermogram can be adjusted using various color palettes, allowing the user to choose the view that best suits their environment or task. Armasight thermal devices offer customizable color settings to enhance image clarity in different conditions, providing precise thermal detection capabilities for professionals and enthusiasts alike.

What is the difference between thermal imaging and night vision?

Night vision amplifies existing light to create visible images, making it ideal for low-light conditions. Thermal imaging detects heat rather than light, enabling visibility even in complete darkness or through smoke, fog, or other obstacles. Thermal imaging is particularly useful for hunting, where heat signatures help detect varmints in thick vegetation or at night. Armasight's thermal scopes deliver high-performance detection in any condition, making them a favorite among hunters and tactical professionals.

Can thermal imaging see in complete darkness?

Yes, thermal imaging works in total darkness by detecting heat rather than light. It is widely used in hunting, where it helps spot animals hidden behind vegetation or in low-visibility environments. Armasight thermal imaging products are specifically designed for this, offering hunters a clear advantage in tracking game at night or in other challenging conditions.

Can objects be visible in fog or smoke with thermal vision?

Absolutely. Armasight's thermal sensor technology empowers you to see through obstacles like fog, smoke, and adverse weather conditions, ensuring you maintain clarity in any environment. Elevate your thermal optics experience with Armasight, where innovation meets performance.

What are the different types of thermal imaging devices?

Thermal devices come in several forms, including: Armasight offers a wide range of sights, clip-ons, monoculars, and accessories like objective lens caps and helmet mounts.

Are thermal monoculars head or helmet-mounted?
