The Thermion Duo DXP opens a new page in the history of Pulsar hunting optics. This is the first commercial riflescope to combine the effectiveness of thermal imaging detection at any time of day with the comfort of full-colour daytime observation. With the synergy that comes from the integration of different technologies, observation with the Thermion Duo brings enhanced high-information content
For many hunters the Thermion Duo DXP is set to become the only option for an optical riflescope at any time of the day and in any weather conditions. This thermal imaging riflescope, the Thermion Duo DXP, is based on the best solutions and components used in the development of Pulsar optics to ensure good handling of the challenges of night hunting. Full darkness, rain and fog will not prevent the Thermion Duo DXP from locating a beast and revealing its trophy qualities. The 4K resolution digital channel gives the full colours of day hunting.
4K full-colour sensor for daytime hunting
The daytime digital channel clearly draws objects at distances of 10 meters and over. Using the Thermion Duo DXP as a daytime riflescope is always simple and convenient as the lens does not require focusing. The 4K-resolution CMOS sensor provides exemplary detail and identification of objects across the entire range of magnifications. Day hunting is not only comfortable, but also high-tech when using the Thermion Duo DXP. A full-colour image peculiar to classic daytime optics is combined with extreme digital functionality. At any time, the hunter can record an image, change the reticle pattern and colour, or connect the riflescope to a smartphone.
640×480 @ NETD < 25 mK high-sensitivity thermal imaging sensor
A high-sensitivity European-made sensor with < 25 mK NETD captures minimal temperature differences when observing in low temperature contrast conditions, or in rain or fog. The 640 x 480-pixel resolution ensures reliable identification of the target, high-quality visualization of important anatomical features of the animal plus minute details of the surrounding landscape. The sensor’s large size gives the Thermion Duo DXP a wide field of view for comfortable and informative observation of both static and dynamic scenes.
Fast aperture F50/1.0 thermal lens
The potential of the high-sensitivity sensor is fully revealed in a thermal imaging channel by the high-aperture F50/1.0 germanium lens. The thermal imaging channel ensures maximum detection efficiency for the hunter in any weather conditions at any time of day.
Advanced image processing: enhanced detail, clarity and contrast
The Thermion Duo implements modern algorithms to reach a new level of image detailing, clarity and contrast. The thermal imaging channel, using a wide range of halftones, has the capability to render complex scenes with evenly emitting low-contrast objects, such as the sky, grass or water surfaces. The enhanced detail and software that sharpens objects at different distances, renders a highly informative thermal image. Manually increasing the sensitivity of the thermal imaging sensor allows you to improve the quality of detection of the animal if observation conditions deteriorate. A smoothing filter and brightness and contrast settings ensure comfort for prolonged observation times. The daytime channel gives ideal image perception in both sunny and cloudy conditions.
Combined multispectral viewing modes
The Thermion Duo supports four observation modes. The digital image mode is used for daytime hunting. The thermal imaging mode is designed for night conditions, and as an auxiliary mode in difficult daytime conditions – fog, dense clouds, rain, oncoming or side sunlight, tall grass, shrubbery and trees in sight affect the ability to detect an animal, comfortably observe it and clearly determine its trophy characteristics. The “Picture-in-Picture” function in the Thermion Duo makes it possible to simultaneously display images from both optical channels, prioritising the thermal or digital image.
