| Binoculars with a built-in image stabilization system (BS) provide a means of conducting steady and high-quality visual observations from moving transport facilities by compensating for external vibration and hand tremor.
The new binoculars differ from analogs in their wide field of vision, high magnification, and greater lens speed. They may be used for observations from swiftly moving transport facilities (helicopters, airplanes, motor vehicles, etc.), for observing such objects, and for observations in the conditions of poor illumination of objects.
The scientific and technical novelty of the binoculars consists in the use of a system of movable mirrors, which produce a high-quality image despite the changing spatial positions of the binoculars themselves and the observed object. In their principal parameters (see Table) and in their production and cost characteristics (estimated for an output of 1000 binoculars a year), the proposed binoculars have a twofold superiority over the best analogs in the world. |
