This kit pairs a HEAT thermal monocular with a VIPER digital night vision monocular on a bridge. The two units work independently or side by side. Thermal is used to scan and detect, and night vision is used to see detail.
Thermal shows heat, so it can pick out an animal in a treeline, a person behind light brush, or a warm engine. VIPER is digital night vision, with a camera sensor and a screen instead of an analog tube. Used together, each covers the other's weaknesses.
The units can be helmet mounted, handheld, or bridged for head-mounted use. The bridge is included. The setup can also be configured as two VIPER units on one bridge for two-eye digital night vision, or as a HEAT worn on the head alone or bridged.
