Fusion TN-KS/2

A compact helmet-mounted device that fuses night-vision and thermal sensors to detect targets up to 600 m (human recognition to 200 m) – 384 x 288 bolometer, 800 x 600 OLED, 4-hour battery life, IPx5 protection and pairable with an NVG monocular for binocular vision.

TN-KS/2 fusion night vision and thermal observation device, tan version

Overview

Two sensors, one decisive image.

TN-KS/2 is a combined observation system that unites image-intensifier night vision, a microbolometer thermal channel and a fusion-signal emulator, so the operator enjoys the benefits of both technologies in one device.

The thermal channel detects targets in any light or weather, while the night-vision channel enables fast identification at closer ranges by revealing visible detail. Paired with a monocular NVG the device provides binocular vision on the helmet.

Key benefits

  • Detection of targets in any light or weather conditions
  • Fast identification at closer ranges via the visible channel
  • Combined image of thermal and night vision channels
  • 800 x 600 OLED display with diopter adjustment
  • 4 hours of operation on 4 x CR123 (or 2 x 18650)
  • Turn-on time under 5 seconds · IPx5 splash protection

Applications

  • Helmet-mounted night observation
  • Reconnaissance in adverse weather
  • Special forces operations
  • Binocular use with NVG monocular
