All-Weather SWIR Monocular
The Cyclops AWX SWIR monocular is a ruggedized tactical laser spotter that has been fielded to special forces around the world. The flexible platform allows users to choose between a SWIR monocular, SWIR monocular with a PRF decoder or SWIR monocular with a 1550 illuminator.
Battle-tested and customizable for large orders, the Cyclops AWX is based on the 640×512 Raptor InGaAs camera. The laser spotting capabilities allow spotting during daylight hours with no filter. The optional PRF decoder allows tracking up to 3 laser marker/designator codes at one time.
The unit is powered by lithium batteries or can be connected via hot shoe. This compact solution can be tailored by the user for optimal performance.
