DESCRIPTION AND FEATURES
The SPI Dauber is a compact, all weather Ultra high performance, high sensitivity thermal IR imaging clip-on sniper sight that allows quick transformation of the day optics into thermal imaging device without any special skills. The system has real time TTM Target Temperature Measurement with multiple user modes for hunting, facial ID, snipe, Close Quarter and other environmental Target acquisitions settings which assist in discerning select targets of interest. The Dauber utilizes the best hand select LWIR FPA sensors coupled with rugged, hardened, coated Germanium optics. The Dauber can withstand serious recoil offering rock steady zero & can be easily attached in-line onto your dayscopes for Medium to long range use in day, dusk or in total darkness at night. Powered with two CR123 batteries the unit provides up to 5 hours of continuous work. An optional external battery pack (5V) with high-capacity is capable of increasing the total operation time to up to 44 hours. The Dauber can be also connected to an optional video recorder for shooting real time video or external Wi-Fi module for conjunction with smartphones.

How Thermal Infrared Imaging or “FLIR” Rifle Scope Technology Works in a Thermal Weapon Sight
SPI’s Long Range Clip-On Thermal Scopes incorporate advanced thermal night vision technology with uncooled FPA sight and scope FLIR technology. This setup forms a completely passive infrared weapon sighting system. It allows users to detect heat signatures of individuals or objects in various conditions – day or night, and even in rain, fog, or smoke. This technology does not require an external flash infrared (IR) illuminator light source, making it versatile for use in total darkness or bright daylight.
The scopes’ ability to detect heat-emitting objects, such as humans and recently-operated vehicles, allows them to stand out starkly against their backgrounds, effectively penetrating camouflage and other visual concealment methods. Built to rugged standards, these FLIR thermal rifle scopes are resilient, shock, and water-resistant, and can endure the forces generated by repeated recoil. They come with a quick-detachable mount for fast attachment to Mil-Std-1913 Picatinny rails and weapon receivers
Furthermore, these scopes offer versatility through their interchangeable mounting on different weapons without significant changes in point of impact. Their electronic reticles are available in various shapes, designs, and sizes, enabling precise targeting. The scopes are powered by AA batteries or CR123 lithium types and come with auxiliary power ports for alternative power sources. They also feature a vision video output port for external display or recording.
The thermal imaging cameras in these scopes are available in two main types: Uncooled (LWIR Long wave infrared) and Cryogenically cooled. Uncooled units operate at room temperature, are completely quiet, activate immediately, and have built-in batteries. Cryogenically cooled systems offer higher resolution and sensitivity by cooling the elements inside a container below 32 F (zero C). These high-performance systems can detect minute temperature differences from significant distances.
Moreover, the technology behind these systems involves sophisticated image enhancement. Night-vision devices (NVDs) use an image-intensifier tube to collect and amplify infrared and visible light. This tube converts photons into electrons and back, amplifying the light collected by the objective lens. The microchannel plate (MCP) in the tube multiplies the electrons, creating a brighter, less distorted image. NVDs have evolved over generations, with each generation bringing significant advancements in technology and performance.
In summary, SPI’s Long Range Thermal Scopes and FLIR weapon sights offer a highly advanced, versatile, and rugged solution for thermal imaging and night vision. Their ability to operate in various environmental conditions, coupled with their sophisticated image enhancement technology, makes them an essential tool for military, law enforcement, hunting, and surveillance applications.
