What Is a Telescope Imager?

Night vision telescopes, also known as night vision goggles, are commonly known as "night vision devices". It is an instrument that can observe in a completely dark or low-light environment. According to the different imaging principles, they are generally divided into "low-light night vision" and "infrared night vision". Night vision was first used in the military. It is widely used in criminal investigation, security prevention, forest fire prevention, power and communication inspection lines, construction sites, farms, farm care, and even tourism and other fields.

Night vision telescope with certain night vision function

Night vision telescope is a military night vision instrument using photoelectric conversion technology. Night vision telescopes are divided into active night vision telescopes and passive night vision telescopes: active night vision telescopes use infrared searchlights to illuminate a target and receive reflected infrared radiation to form an image;

Active night vision telescopes have the characteristics of clear imaging and simple production, but the Achilles heel of active night vision telescopes is that the infrared light of infrared searchlights will be found by the enemy's infrared detection device. In the 1960s, the United States first developed a night vision telescope. It does not emit infrared light, is not easily detected by the enemy, and has the ability to observe through fog, rain, and so on.

Night vision telescope practical application

The United States is also developing night vision telescopes. Although the test succeeded later than Germany, it was the first to put it into practical use. In the summer of 1945, the U.S. army landed and attacked Okinawa. The Japanese army hidden in the cave tunnel used the complex terrain to attack the U.S. army at night. So the U.S. military rushed a batch of newly manufactured infrared night instruments to Okinawa, and put the gun rack with the night vision telescope near the cave. The Japanese army immediately climbed out of the hole while night and was immediately knocked down by an accurate gun. The Japanese army inside the cave did not know the cause, and continued to rush out, and lost their lives in a mess. When the night vision telescope first entered the battlefield, it played an important role in clearing the stubborn Japanese troops on the island of Okinawa.

Night vision telescope effect

From April to June 1982, the Malvinas Islands war broke out between Britain and Argentina. At midnight on April 13, the British attacked Port Stanley, the largest stronghold of the army. A minefield set by 3,000 British troops suddenly appeared in front of the Afghan defense line. All British firearms and artillery are equipped with night vision telescopes, which can clearly find the Azerbaijani targets in the dark. However, the Arab army lacked a night vision device and could not find the British army. They had to be beaten passively. Under the accurate attack of the British army, the Afghan army could not support it, and the British army took the opportunity to launch an assault. By dawn, the British army had occupied several major commanding heights on the Afghan defense line, and the Afghan army was completely under the control of the British firepower. At 9 pm on June 14, 14,000 Afghan troops had to surrender to the British army. The British army led a night vision telescope to win a disparate battle.

Night vision telescope effect

In the 1991 Gulf War, on the battlefield filled with sand and smoke, because the US military was equipped with advanced night vision telescopes, it was able to find the opponent before the Iraqi army's tank and fired at it. However, the Iraqi army learned that the enemy was ahead only from the muzzle of the fire of the US tank. From this we can see the important role of night vision telescopes in modern warfare.

Night vision telescope fashion application

Turn on the night vision of the telescope at night and add a filter to see through. With this accessory, you can observe the scene at night using the lens of the telescope. This was originally a useful feature, but users soon discovered that the function of this infrared night vision lens can be applied not only to telephoto at night but also to see the body through people's clothes. The manufacturer of this night vision accessory is YAMADA DENSHI. This company was originally a professional manufacturer of optical cameras for the military and defense and applications.
