Our most versatile night vision system can be configured with a variety of image
intensifiers and enhanced with a wide range of optional accessories to meet any
mission requirement. Standard features such as Mil Spec optics, high-power,
multi-stage Infrared Illuminator, and internal low battery and infrared
indicators are packaged in a compact, rugged, weather resistant housing. The
D-300 is the choice of Law Enforcement Professionals and private users who
demand exquisite performance, friendly controls and easy system customization
for different modes of employment.
A large selection of optional accessories make the D-300 extremely versatile.
Detection ranges can be increased by adding to the 1x objective high-resolution
3x or 5x Mil Spec Afocal lenses or replacing it with a 3.6x commercial objective
that can be increased to 7x by coupling with a magnification doubler. To
illuminate distant objects, several external IR Illuminators are available.
A camera/camcorder adaptor attaches the D-300 to 35 mm SLR cameras and
camcorders for nighttime use. Installed on a Mil Spec weapon mount, the D-300
adds night vision capabilities to daytime holosights like EoTech or Aimpoint.
The Night Optics USA, Inc. proprietary (patent pending) Day/Night Adaptor
quickly transforms a daytime riflescope into a 24-hour system without loss of
weapon zero by allowing quick connection of a D-300 to the eye-piece of daytime
optics. Scope can be configured as the D-300G Mono Goggle by adding a commercial
headgear. Autogating of image
intensifier tubes consists of automatically regulating voltages to the tube’s
microchannel plate to optimize brightness and protect the tube in significantly
changing light conditions. When it was discovered that the development of
filmless image intensifier tubes (provisionally termed “Gen 4”) was not
practical, tube manufacturers developed very thin-film ion barriers to protect
the photocathode while increasing tube performance.
These thin-film tubes combined with autogated
power supplies provide the current state of the art of image intensification
technology. In 2001 the US Army declared that the term “Gen 4” would no longer
apply to filmless tube technology, resulting in the US military’s current use of
“thin-film, autogated” image intensification tubes as the standard for its night
vision devices. |
