Enhanced thermal monocular Diana IR

August 01-15, 2011

Diana IR is a thermal imaging device designed to be used by the Special Forces while executing a wide variety of ‘search and rescue’ missions and other military operations, regardless of the environmental conditions such as storm, dense fog, smoke, dust, snow or total darkness.

The enhanced thermal monocular relies on proven technology. The optical elements of the objective are made of germanium lenses with high-durable and antireflex coating to withstand even the harshest conditions of military operations. The image processing electronic control unit allows visualisation in real time with 30 Hz frame rate and format 640x480 /NTSC/. The digital processing involves complex algorithms that increase the image quality and provide ultimate dynamic range. The monocular has a set of interfaces /serial, USB/ for remote control of the functions and an analogue video output port. It can be mounted on a mask, a helmet or a picatinny rail /MIL-STD-1913/ without the need for special tools.
