The iGen ® advantage is:
• Better image quality with high, 37 line-pair per millimeter, edge-to-edge display resolution
• Better image quality with no image distortion from photocathode or
phosphorescent screen blemishes
• Easier diopter focusing
• Two-times the sensitivity to infrared light, useful in total darkness with the aid of
the infrared emitter
• Intelligent infrared emitter. Microprocessor automatically adjusts infrared intensity
and electronic gain to optimize image to changing ambient light conditions.
• Undistorted infrared emitter – bright clear scene illumination with no dark spots
and no uneven light patterns
• Ambient light amplification capability higher than Generation-1 technology at
default exposure. Light amplification capability superior to Generation-2 with the
use of exposure control.
• Easy-connect video capture capability through composite video output
• Programmability
• Bright-light see-through capability. No bright-spot blooming or halo-effect typical
with conventional night vision.
• More robust. No risk of damage from bright light exposure. No fragile vacuum tubes.
