Aiming night vision device is a device that combines night vision technology with aiming function. Here is a detailed introduction about it:

Main types

Low-light-level night vision sight: The weak natural light is enhanced by the image intensifier, so that the shooter can see the target clearly and aim at it at night or in low light conditions. Its advantages are clear images and high resolution. It can work normally under weak light such as moonlight and starlight, and does not require additional infrared light sources, and is not easily discovered by the enemy. The disadvantage is that it cannot work normally in a completely dark environment and has a certain dependence on ambient light.

Infrared night vision sight: It uses the target's own infrared radiation or actively emits infrared light to illuminate the target, and then receives the infrared radiation reflected by the target to form an image, thereby achieving aiming. It is divided into active and passive types. Active infrared night vision sights need to be equipped with infrared searchlights, which can work in a completely dark environment, but it is easy to expose their own position; passive infrared night vision sights do not emit infrared rays, and rely on the target's own infrared radiation to form a "thermal image", which has good concealment, but the imaging effect of targets with small temperature differences may not be good.

Thermal imaging night vision sight: Based on thermal imaging technology, it forms an image by detecting the temperature difference between the target and the background. It can clearly display the target in harsh environmental conditions such as complete lack of light, smoke, and dust, and can identify camouflaged targets. Its disadvantages are that the equipment is relatively expensive, large in size and weight, and has high requirements for power supply.

Features and advantages

Enhanced night aiming ability: At night or in low-light environments, it can provide the shooter with a clear target image, greatly improving the accuracy and hit rate of shooting, so that the shooter can quickly find and lock the target in the dark.

Improve combat effectiveness: In military operations, law enforcement operations and other scenarios, it allows users to remain hidden at night while accurately aiming at the target, increasing the suddenness and success rate of operations, which is of great significance for night patrols, reconnaissance, sniping and other tasks.

Adapt to a variety of environments: Whether in the wild jungle, mountainous areas, or in complex environments such as urban streets and buildings, it can play a role, providing users with good visual support and helping them better deal with various emergencies.

Application fields

Military field: It is one of the important equipment for night operations of modern military forces, and is widely used in infantry, special forces, snipers, etc. For example, during night patrols and reconnaissance missions, soldiers can use aiming night vision goggles to detect potential threats in time; snipers can accurately aim at targets at night and perform long-range shooting tasks.

Law enforcement field: When police perform tasks at night, such as anti-terrorism operations, drug enforcement operations, border patrols, etc., aiming night vision goggles can help them better observe and aim at targets, improve the safety and efficiency of law enforcement, and avoid exposing their own positions.

Hunting field: For people who like night hunting, aiming night vision goggles can make it easier for them to find prey in the dark, increase the success rate of hunting, and aim and shoot without scaring the prey.

Civilian field: It is also used in some activities that require observation and aiming at night, such as night wildlife observation, outdoor adventures, security patrols, etc., providing users with better visual assistance and safety guarantees.
