Syntec Optics Launches Innovative Thermal Clip-On Scope (Nasdaq: OPTX)

ROCHESTER, NEW YORK, Dec. 20, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Syntec Optics, a scientific and technical instruments, and aerospace and defense supplier that over the past two decades enabled missile guide optics and a wide field of view Heads Up Display for military helicopter pilots, announced today that it has expanded its capabilities to produce a new disruptive innovation product called Phoenix, a thermal scope that clips-on in front of the soldier’s daylight scope on military platforms and can be switched on and off without affecting the daylight scope to provide a thermal image as needed. American soldiers can now defend against camouflaged targets/threats and leverage enhanced situation awareness without the inconvenience of any additional equipment or flip-in-place devices currently in use. 

“Syntec Optics’ intellectual property for Phoenix thermal imaging was inspired by the benefits of thermal overlay technology that is well known and has been in use by the U.S. Army since 2008 with the deployment of the Enhanced Night Vision Goggle (ENVG) for target/threat detection and enhanced situation awareness,” said Syntec’s VP of Advanced Systems Jim Olson, an industry expert. 

Director of Sales Sara Hart said, “Thermal Clip-On Imager (Phoenix) is an innovative infrared thermal device which has the ability to convert almost any variable power optic scope (1-6x, 1-8x, or other) into a fused-sight scope.” 

The Phoenix has multiple modes of use. These include a full thermal mode and an outline mode used for camouflaged object detection. All modes are easily selectable using the convenient, user-friendly interface. 

Joe Mohr, CEO of Syntec Optics, expressed his enthusiasm for the innovation, saying, “The Phoenix captures both the wide field thermal scene for situation awareness and also the high resolution on axis details; both of these scenes combine into a single image for projection within the existing image in the scope used in daylight. This is unlike anything else on the market today.” 

He added, “Phoenix, to me, is more meaningful because it should keep soldiers out of harm's way. Looking through the day vision scope, the thermal image will be fused with the visible scene, empowering the user with thermal heat detection capability combined with existing conventional daylight optics.”
