Overview
The device features an ergonomic, low-profile design that enhances situational awareness over traditional single-tube goggles. Developed with input from Special Forces operators, the BNVD is engineered to boost system resolution, greatly minimize head-mounted weight, and enhance the overall center of gravity for improved comfort and performance.
Features
- Manual system gain and focus adjustments for custom image quality optimization
- Lightweight ergonomic design reduces head-borne weight and decreases neck strain
- Optional diopter lenses optimize operator preference for visual acuity
- Rotating binocular design allows low profile against helmet when in stowed position and the option to use as a single monocular
- Works with currently fielded dovetail helmet mounts
- Auto OFF when stowed; resumes power when deployed
- LED indicators in left and right monocular alert the operator when the BNVD has no less than 10 minutes of battery life remaining
- Replaceable/upgradeable I2 tube assemblies.
