What kinds of night vision equipment are there?
Spotting Scopes - Spotting scopes are usually hand-held, but can also be mounted on a weapon, and they have a monocular (one eye) body. Since the scope is a handheld device and not worn on the body like an eyepiece, it is suitable when you want to take a more detailed observation of a specific target and then return to normal observation conditions.
Eyepieces - Although eyepieces can also be hand held, they are usually worn on the forehead. The eyepiece adopts a binocular (two eyes) mirror body, and can use a single lens or a compound lens according to different styles. Eyepieces are the best choice for long-duration observations, such as when patrolling buildings in poor lighting.
Cameras - Cameras with night vision technology can transmit images to a display for instant playback, or a video recorder can record the transmitted images. When we need to perform high-quality night vision observations at a constant location, such as on a fixed building, or when the night vision device is equipped as an airborne device for a helicopter, the camera can come in handy. Many new cameras already have built-in night vision.
