It incorporates digital signal processing with integrated compact optics and rugged packaging with attention to ergonomic detail. It has been designed to endure the rigors of outdoor use, occasional rough handling, and accidental submersion for a few minutes in shallow water. Even with its small design, the image quality is not compromised and maintains high performance at an unparalleled value.      The MX-1 provides the Firefighter or Security Officer with Thermal Detection capabilities just by reaching into a pocket. Your hands have better things to do than carry large cameras. Easily find your way through the thickest of smoke, render fog useless and see through camouflage and shadows.      The "Top-of-the-Shelf" Amorphous Silicon Microbolometer Technology found inside the MX-1 is what permits the imager to be so small and light. Measuring only 5 inches across and weighing only 13 ounces with the battery, the MX-1 easily fits into the palm of a hand or pocket, perfect for covert operations or convenience.   System Technical Specifications      Detector Type Uncooled Microbolometer Spectral Response 7 - 14 microns Cold Start Time <5 seconds (typical) Detector Resolution 160 x 120 Detection Range <1000' (305m) Focus Range 1m  to ∞ (infinity) Magnification 0.9-power Eye Relief 3 inches Frame Rate 20Hz NTSC Size 5" x 4" x 2" Weight 12 oz.
