ATN PS-15 specifications

The ATN PS-15 is a versatile and advanced dual-channel night vision goggle designed for both professional and recreational use. Renowned for its impressive optical performance and user-friendly features, the PS-15 is tailored for those who demand superior visibility in low-light environments.

One of the standout features of the ATN PS-15 is its dual-channel system. This technology allows users to receive clear images from both eyes, providing enhanced depth perception and a more natural view of the surroundings. The dual-channel design enhances situational awareness, making the goggles particularly valuable for tactical operations, wildlife observation, and search-and-rescue missions.

The PS-15 is equipped with high-resolution image intensifier tubes, which deliver exceptional clarity and brightness even in complete darkness. These tubes amplify ambient light, ensuring that users can see clearly in low-light conditions. The goggles are also designed to significantly reduce the halo effect that can often be a drawback of traditional night vision devices, resulting in a more immersive experience.

Another key characteristic of the ATN PS-15 is its rugged construction. Built to withstand the demands of outdoor use, the PS-15 features durable housing that is both water and fog-resistant. This ensures reliable operation in various weather conditions, allowing users to trust their equipment during critical missions.

The PS-15 also integrates advanced technology such as ATN’s proprietary Smart HD technology, which enhances image resolution and provides a more vivid viewing experience. Additionally, the goggles are designed with an ergonomic interface, making them comfortable to wear for extended periods without causing fatigue.

For added convenience, the ATN PS-15 offers adaptability with various accessories, including helmet mounts and a variety of lenses. This flexibility allows users to customize their experience according to their specific needs and preferences.

Overall, the ATN PS-15 stands out as an exceptional dual-channel night vision goggle that combines high-performance optics, robust construction, and user-friendly features. Whether in professional or recreational scenarios, this device is engineered to meet the high standards expected by its users, ensuring reliability and clarity in the darkest of conditions.
