1.2.4. MECHANICAL FUNCTION
The mechanical adjustments of the Odin sights allow for physical
differences between individual operators using the system. The
scope functions include the ON-OFF switch, UP button, ENTER
button, DOWN button, video-out, eyepiece diopter adjustment ring,
battery compartment cover, mounting thread. The mechanical con-
trols are identified in Figure 1.3.

1.2.5. OPTICAL FUNCTIONS

The optical functions include an objective lens, thermal imaging
detector and eyepiece. Infrared energy is emitted proportionally
to the temperature of an object. The warmer the object, the more
energy it emits. The infrared energy from the objects is focused by
the optics, onto an infrared detector. The information from infrared
detector is passed to electronics for image processing. The signal
processing circuitry translates the infrared detector data into an im-
age that can be viewed on the built-in OLED display. The image is
observed through an eyepiece by operator.
