ARGUS PANOPTES is a family of innovative full MIL-SPEC, image intensified, twin tube binoculars that can be operated helmet-mounted, head-mounted or hand-held. Lightweight, yet of robust construction, with superior optical characteristics and performance. Through its modularity the user can freely decide on the actual system configuration (monocular, binocular, weapon mounted) depending on the mission profile and user preferences.

ARGUS PANOPTES as a dual channel, dual tube system offers better depth perception than single tube systems making it easier to judge distances and relative motion, thus allowing the user to perform tasks such as vehicle driving or other demanding applications. Both versions (LW and FS) can be offered with or without Manual Gain Control (MGC).

DAMΩN, Family of Clip-on Night Vision Sights

In Line Afocal Night Sight

FEATURES

• Two variants to meet mission requirements: Medium (MR) and Long (LR) Range
• Adds night vision capability by placing in front of day optical sights
• No need to remove day sight. Eye relief, shooting position and user’s muscle memory remain the same
• Advanced optical design - Excellent performance / weight ratio
• Small and lightweight
• No boresighting required
• Provided with or without Manual Gain Control
• Simple and quick single throw lever mounting on picatiny rails
   

THEON SENSORS’ DAMΩN family of Clip-On Night Vision Devices (CNVDs) was developed to provide soldiers with an unrivaled night vision and target acquisition capability. The clip-on sights are designed for use in tandem with medium or long range day sights to provide targeting at night, while maintaining the day optic’s ballistic zeroing.

DAMΩN is simple in operation with ON/OFF/Manual Gain Control and Focus knobs ergonomically positioned on the device.

DAMΩN attaches quickly and with a simple way to picatinny rails (optional use of single lever mounts). No removal of the day sight or any boresighting is required, thus eye relief shooting position and user’s muscle memory remain the same. Day sight’s exit eye box is retained via DAMΩN’s large collimating optics. DAMΩN is manufactured of aircraft-grade aluminum and is fully military specified and tested. An additional picatinny rail enables installation of auxiliary equipment such as an IR illuminator etc. The DAMΩN MR is suitable for short-range rifles (i.e. M16, M4, AK-47 etc.), while the LR is suitable for the squad leader’s weapon, Sniper Rifles and Machine guns (i.e. FN Minimi, MG3, M2 HB, MK19 etc.).

NYX, Dedicated Night Vision Binoculars

FEATURES

• The lightest Night Vision binocular in its category
• Rugged and user friendly design based on real user feedback
• Optional Manual Gain Control
• Integrated Infrared Illuminator
• Independent Flip away & Flip up function- reduced silhouette
• Enhanced sturdiness and ease of use dovetail design
• 25 mm eye relief for improved comfort
• Smart electronics
• Mount available for large range of helmets including VAS shroud
• Complete range of accessories including 3X magnifier, sacrificial, antifogging, day training, laser protection filters, camera adapters etc

NYX is a cutting edge, full MIL-SPEC, image intensified, dual tube binocular that is able to be operated helmet-mounted, head-mounted or hand-held.

It offers better depth perception than single tube systems making it easier to judge distances and relative motion so the ability to perform tasks such as driving is greatly improved. NYX is the ideal choice for special operations forces.

For momentary configuration changes, the user can flip away each monocular separately. With both monoculars flipped away and flipped up, the system stows along the contour of the helmet thus reducing its silhouette and neck strain, minimising the danger of system damage.

NYX features self-contained single AA battery power and can be also operated via a remote battery pack at the rear of the helmet for increased operational life.

THEON SENSORS offers a family of image intensified Night Driver’s Viewers for several types of armored vehicles and main battle tanks.

With special-to-the-vehicle mounting bracket assemblies, the basic design can be fitted to virtually any type of vehicle. The mounting bracket assembly allows the viewers to rotate left and right with respect to a central detent position for surveillance when the vehicle is stopped.

The viewers are installed (typically without tools or modifications to the vehicle) in a special opening of the driver’s hatch, where available, or replace one, usually the central, day periscope. When not in use, the viewers are stored in a metal container.

The viewers are supplied with a 25 mm format image intensifier tube and magnifier assembly. The tube offers Automatic Brightness Control (ABC) and Bright Source Protection (BSP). In addition to ABC and BSP, the viewers feature an Electronic Control Assembly that switches off the viewer

when exposed to daylight conditions. Operation is simple with only one single ON/OFF - Gain Control switch.
