What Is a Digital Monocular?

A monoscope is an instrument that observes distant objects by collecting electromagnetic waves. In daily life, telescopes mainly refer to optical telescopes. But in modern astronomy, astronomical telescopes include radio telescopes, infrared telescopes, X-ray and gamma-ray telescopes ^[1] . The concept of modern astronomical telescopes has further extended to the fields of gravitational waves, cosmic rays and dark matter.

A monocular is a visual optical instrument used to observe distant objects. It can enlarge a small opening angle of a distant object at a certain magnification, so that it has a large opening angle in image space, making it impossible to use the naked eye Objects that can be seen or distinguished become clear and legible. Therefore, the binoculars are an indispensable tool for astronomy and ground observation. It is a kind of

In daily life, an optical telescope is usually a cylindrical optical instrument.

Monoculars

In the early 17th century, Hans Lippas, a Dutch maker of glasses, discovered that stacking convex and concave lenses can make distant objects larger, and monocles were born. Hans' invention attracted the attention of a Dutch general. Since then, the telescope quickly spread to other European countries and was called the "Dutch Column". Because the telescope has the function of telescopic observation. So it was quickly used in the military. The craftsmen developed military telescopes according to the needs of the war. In battle. The generals ride on horses or stand high. Through the telescope, you can observe the situation on the battlefield, adjust the deployment in time, and give orders. The telescope became an indispensable symbol of munitions and command. ^[2]
