Thermal imaging responds to heat differences. Digital night vision and image-intensified night vision depend on available light or compatible illumination. Fusion and multispectral products combine channels, but the exact capabilities differ by model.
Sensor resolution is only one factor. Compare field of view, objective size, display, battery requirements, mounting compatibility and warranty. Detection is not positive identification; never treat a thermal shape as sufficient identification of a target. Follow applicable laws and the manufacturer’s instructions.
A binocular viewing format for observation. Compare the exact thermal, digital or fusion channels and the model’s physical size; similar housings can contain different sensors.
