Description
The Ultralight Articulating Night Vision Binocular Out-board Control Ruggedized (UANVB-OCR) “Samurai-Ruggedized” is a patent pending
articulating binocular system made of high strength aerospace grade 7075-T6
aluminum with a full suite of out-board controls, utilized via its proprietary
control pack. Using advanced multi-axis CNC machining an ultra-lightweight and
robust design is achieved, including an optimal single piece pod geometry. This
ruggedized variant of the “Samurai” binocular lives up to its name being both
ultralight and rugged. The binocular weight rivals that of the even that of
even our most lightweight polymer on-board power housing options, taking into
account their required batteries additional weight. The “Samurai” goggle system
is a revolutionary patent pending binocular system which moves power and all
user controls outboard and to the rear of the helmet system onto the control
pack. Moving the controls to the rear of the helmet enables the user to always
maintain situational awareness and positive control of a weapon while adjusting
settings. This system distributes weight more efficiently across the user's
head allowing for extended use time with little to no neck fatigue. This system
includes features such as manual gain control, individual pod stow shutoff, IPD
stops, user adjustable pod tension, IR-illuminator & indicator, and low
battery indicator. Several control packs are available with traditional analog
controls, digital push button controls, and several power source options such as
2X CR123A, or 4X AA for continuous runtimes of 50+, or 60+ hours respectively.
