Introduction 

ATLAS is an uncooled universal thermal binocular detecting the long IR part of the spectrum (7.5 

13.5  μm)  and  designed  to  meet  the  demands  of  security  professionals,  nature  enthusiasts, 

sailors, hunters,  and sportsmen alike.   ATLAS offers  unsurpassed performance when used for 
search  and  rescue  operations,  surveillance,  perimeter  control,  and  vehicle  identification  in 
addition to a wide variety of other applications. 
 
The rugged and lightweight ATLAS combines an engineered plastic housing with optics that will 
satisfy the most stringent and demanding requirements.  Regardless of ambient light conditions, 
smoke or haze,  ATLAS detects even the slightest temperature differences of everything in the 
field of view and provides the user with 

clear “white hot”, “black hot”, colored or “edge-detected”
