Improved peripheral for extended field of vision.

Peripheral vision.

You know how you're looking out a row of windows but your brain ignores the frames and sees the outside as only one image?

Or how you actually have your nose in every view but your brain just erases it?

That's what they're going for.

And by the way, that helps a lot with a Rhinoceros or how a chicken or fish pretty much imagines what the hell is on its nose.

Thank God for the brain's autopilot setting.

You think, that realizing your nose is there, is bad?

YOU ARE NOW MANUALLY BREATHING!!!

Thinking about every breath.

Breath in... Breath out!!!

You go this! Just keep it up now.

Wtf? I'm agreeing with your explanation, then all of a sudden you're talking about chickens. 😁🤔

Now I'm imagining chickens running around wearing those optics. I like that mental image.

Increased field of view.

Extra collectors give you a greater field of view and depth perception. Most infantry models have a single magnifier. All aviation models have two collectors. The very best models such as this have 4 actual devices. So a single might have 30 degrees of view, a double might have 80, these ones have like 130 degrees of vision.

Thanks for the explanation. I’m just realizing the eyes aren’t dug into the middle two scopes like how binoculars work and realize now the four scopes are far away from the face giving a field of eye. I feel kinda dumb. Thanks again. Would love to look thru these and see what it looks like.

Generation 3+ NVGs are pretty good the gen 4 ones are super expensive. You can see pretty much anything at like 200meters. You can look thru tinted cars and see the skin tone and sex of people driving at night. You can see dozens of shooting stars in the sky.

Honestly NVGs are great if you aren't facing another military. The thermal optics most modern-day countries use are far better, but they are not always very mobile.
