HIKMICRO has launched its latest invention: the 1280 thermal imaging product line, in a bold move that will benefit the hunting and outdoor optics industry. This launch, featuring the STELLAR 3.0 SX60L and HABROK Pro HX60L(N), is a momentous leap forward in thermal imaging technology, offering hunters and outdoor enthusiasts clarity and precision.
The Power of 1280 Resolution
The 1280×1024 thermal sensor is the star of HIKMICRO’s new offerings. As mentioned, this high-resolution detector is a remarkable advancement in thermal imaging capabilities, providing users with a level of detail and clarity previously unseen in consumer-grade thermal optics. The STELLAR 3.0 SX60L, a thermal riflescope, and the HABROK Pro HX60L(N), a thermal binocular, utilize this advanced sensor to deliver exceptional performance in the field.
HIKMICRO integrates the STELLAR 3.0 SX60L thermal scope’s 1280×1024 sensor with a 60mm F1.0 lens, offering a detection range of up to 3100 meters. This combination allows hunters to precisely identify targets, even in challenging environmental conditions. The scope’s 2560×2560 resolution OLED display further enhances the viewing experience, providing crisp, clear images in both day and night conditions.
Advancing the Hunting Experience
HIKMICRO wants to excel more than just increasing pixel count. The company has incorporated several advanced features designed to enhance the hunting experience in the new products. The HIKMICRO Shutterless Image System (HSIS) eliminates image freezing, a common issue with traditional thermal scopes, ensuring smooth and uninterrupted viewing.
HIKMICRO has equipped the STELLAR 3.0 and HABROK Pro with built-in laser rangefinders capable of measuring distances up to 1000 meters. Integrating rangefinding technology with high-resolution thermal imaging creates a powerful tool for ethical and precise hunting practices. The devices also include HIKMICRO’s Image Pro 2.0 algorithm, which optimizes image detail and reduces noise, further improving target identification capabilities.
HIKMICRO has made durability and usability key considerations in the design of these products. Both devices boast high shock resistance, capable of withstanding recoil up to 1000g/0.4ms, ensuring reliability in rugged field conditions. The STELLAR 3.0 offers up to 10 hours of continuous operation, while the HABROK Pro’s dual-mode functionality (thermal and digital) provides versatility for various hunting scenarios.
Shaping the Future of Outdoor Optics
HIKMICRO’s new 1280 thermal product line is more than just a tech upgrade; it is changing the game for hunters. By pushing thermal imaging to new limits, HIKMICRO gives them the tools that make the job easier and more ethical.
The market for high-quality thermal devices is growing fast, and HIKMICRO is at the forefront, always working on new ideas and getting what hunters need. As more people start using them, there will likely be big shifts in how people hunt and watch wildlife in the coming years.
