Identify Targets in Complete Darkness
Identify vessels running dark, navigational buoys and hazards, and swimmers in complete darkness while utilizing 4 different polarity viewing modes: Black Hot, White Hot, Color Pallet, and our unique Edge Detect mode not found in any other commercially available thermal binocular. Ideal for search and rescue operations, navigating at night, and conducting surveillance.
Extended Detection and Identification Ranges
Detect and identify heat signatures at extended ranges in the most challenging environmental conditions with ATLAS’ state of the art 640×480, 12 micron sensor, with industry leading 60Hz refresh rate. ATLAS provides 2x and 4x digital zoom capability inside a durable, no-slip rubberized housing. ATLAS is built for the outdoors.
“I do a lot of work in congested waterways where there is a lot of traffic at night. Not everyone likes to follow navigational rules so I use my ATLAS and scan the water for vessels running dark. I’ve avoided a few close calls thanks to this unit. I highly recommend it to the shipping community.”
-Capt. Paul in Florida
“I really like the different polarity modes. Each setting seems to work better in certain scenarios than others. I use my ATLAS for navigational purposes at night and in heavy fog but I love that it is reliable as a great search and rescue tool.”
-Paula in Florida
“I Captain a fishing charter boat and for my guests and crews safety I purchased an ATLAS from N-Vision Optics. Not only does everyone love my ATLAS but I am more prepared than ever for any situation. You can’t put a price on security and safety”
– Joseph in North Carolina
“I bought an ATLAS for the safety of my crew. If God forbid one of them went overboard, I want to make sure I’ve done everything to find them and bring them home safely. The ATLAS gives me that capability.”
– Capt. John in Washington

Help Prevent Casualties
The ATLAS Thermal Binocular delivers a powerful tool during man overboard situations by allowing the spotter to maintain visual contact and accurately guide the crew in recovery operations.
ATLAS’ no-slip rubberized housing provides its user with a durable and waterproof unit capable of detecting a man sized object from over a mile away.
Of all U.S. recreational boating accidents recorded in 2016, 351 man-overboard scenarios occurred resulting in 183 deaths. Give your search and rescue operations higher odds for success with the ATLAS Thermal Binocular from N-Vision Optics.

ATLAS Frequently Asked Questions
What is the detection range on the ATLAS Thermal Binocular?
The detection range for a man-sized object with the ATLAS Thermal Binocular is 2250 meters or over 1.25 miles. Larger objects such as boats and navigational buoys can be detected by ATLAS at further distances.
Does the ATLAS Thermal Binocular float?
Yes. ATLAS is nitrogen purged and hermetically sealed to ensure air tightness and floatability.
How many photos can I store on my ATLAS Thermal Binocular at a time?
The ATLAS Thermal Binocular’s internal memory allows for the storage of up to 60 photos at a time.
What is the refresh rate on the ATLAS Thermal Binocular?
The ATLAS is available in 2 versions offering refresh rates of 9Hz and 60Hz respectively.
What kind of batteries does the ATLAS Thermal Binocular require?
The ATLAS Thermal Binocular operates on (3) x CR123 Batteries.
Can the ATLAS Thermal Binocular operate on an external power source?
What is covered under ATLAS’ 5 year warranty?

How many polarity modes are available on the ATLAS Thermal Binocular?
The ATLAS Thermal Binocular offers 4 different polarity modes including White Hot, Black Hot, Thermal Color, and a unique Edge Detect mode not found on any other commercially available thermal binoculars.
At what range do you claim the ATLAS Thermal Binocular can detect the heat signature of a human head while floating in the water?
Based on our observations under different conditions we are reasonably confident that a man’s head sized heat signature would be detectable in the water up to approximately 1000 meters away. However, we do not pretend to claim a specific range for this type of incident.
We, just like everybody else, base our detection (as well as recognition and identification) ranges off of the US Army DRI model for detection of a standard man size figure.
There are no industry/military accepted DRI modeling tools for man overboard conditions. This is one of the reasons we don’t specify what it is or may be. Ranges of detection are influenced by many environmental factors such as water temperature, moisture levels in the air, the size of the individual / object being identified, the qualification level of the observer, etc. In cases of a man overboard recovery, the height of the waves and elevation of the observation point from the sea level are also very important.
What is included in the ATLAS Thermal Binocular Kit?
The ATLAS Thermal Binocular Kit includes and ATLAS Thermal Binocular, Rugged Carrying Case, Neck Strap, Lens Cover, and Lens Cleaning Kit.
How long is the battery life for the ATLAS Thermal Binocular?
The ATLAS Thermal Binocular’s (3) CR-123 batteries provide a continuous operating life of approximately 4 hours.
