ATN Thermal Vision are a fantastic choice for higher end uses, from home and perimeter security to hunting and military operations where visibility is low. ATN is known around the world for the quality of their night vision devices, and they have proven themselves again and again as an innovative leader in low light imaging. But there are certain situations where even their outstanding night vision can't see. In these situations an ATN Thermal Imager is the perfect choice. Unlike ATN Night Vision, which amplifies light to produce a usable image, ATN Thermal Imaging Scopes view infrared light, which is given off in varying amounts by almost everything. What is really great about ATN Thermal Optics is that they help you see through heavy smoke and fog. These conditions would render most traditional night vision devices useless. Thermal Imaging will still detect the heat signatures of people, animals or cars, so you'll still be able to get a great view. This is especially helpful in perimeter security, where simply detecting a possible invader is of the utmost importance. If there's a little rain or fog, a smart intruder would know they are mostly invisible. Keep your home or base totally protected by using an ATN ThOR Thermal Imaging to get a perfect view.
Can You Use ATN Thermal Scopes in Daytime?
Yes you can. Unlike night vision rifle scopes and binoculars, thermal devices can be used during the day. This is because they do not depend on amplifying ambient light to illuminate your surroundings. Instead, thermal scopes read heat signatures that bodies and machines produce. This way, thermal scopes are able to be used at night as well as during the day.
What Are the Differences Between Thermal Imaging Scopes and Night Vision Scopes?
The primary difference is how you see through these two different optics. Night vision scopes are designed to amplify ambient lighting so that you can see an area at least semi-clearly even when it is extremely dark, whether you're outside at night or in a dark enclosed area. They do not illuminate any object in particular, instead giving you a modified view of the entire area. On the other hand, thermal scopes only illuminate heat signatures, such as those given off by bodies, lights, and machines. This highlights specific targets, which makes thermal scopes particularly useful for hunting predators and search and rescue missions.
ATN Thermal Vision devices have a wide variety of uses. Hog hunters love them because they provide a good view of game through foliage. If your rifle is equipped with an ATN Thermal Vision Rifle Scope you'll be able to accurately take a shot when others cannot. ATN Heat Vision is also extremely useful for rescue operations where even the faintest reading from the optic can alert rescue teams to a person's presence. The numerous applications for ATN Thermal Imagers makes them some of the most versatile optics available from OpticsPlanet!
