What do these specs mean?

Understanding Thermal Specs

Thermal Resolution

Think of this like a TV screen (e.g., 1280x1024). A higher number means more pixels. More pixels give you a sharper, more detailed image, allowing you to digitally zoom in much further before the image gets blurry or pixelated.

Thermal Lens

Similar to a camera lens, measured in millimeters (e.g., 50mm). A larger lens gathers more thermal energy and "sees" further, giving you a longer detection range. However, larger lenses typically result in a narrower field of view.

Pixel Interval (Pitch)

The physical distance between pixels on the sensor, measured in microns (e.g., 12µm). A smaller number means the pixels are packed tighter together, which produces a crisper image and extends your optical magnification without needing a massive lens.

NETD (Thermal Sensitivity)

Measures how tiny of a temperature difference the device can detect. Lower is better (e.g., < 15mK beats < 25mK). A lower NETD means you get a much clearer picture in terrible weather (rain, thick fog, high humidity) and superior contrast between the animal and its surroundings.

Thermal FOV (Field of View)

How wide of an area you can see at once. A wider FOV is excellent for scanning large areas quickly to spot movement. A narrower FOV usually means the device has higher magnification, perfect for identifying specific targets at long distances.

Understanding the Math

We believe in honest, real-world field specifications.

Detection ranges are calculated by taking the manufacturer's baseline testing and physically scaling it to the average height of the target animal.

Recognition & Identification are calculated using Johnson's Criteria—the military standard for thermal optics. By analyzing the physical properties of the camera's lens and sensor pitch, we calculate exactly when the target will take up enough pixels on your screen to be clearly identified.

Note: High humidity, thick coats, and environmental background temperatures will reduce these maximum optical distances in the field.

Product Overview
The Hikmicro Lynx LE10 3.0 represents the evolution of the pocket-sized thermal monocular. Designed for efficiency and portability, this device features a highly sensitive 256 × 192 thermal detector paired with a 9.7mm F1.0 lens. It is the ideal tool for professional pest controllers and outdoor enthusiasts who need to scan close-range environments quickly, offering a detection range of up to 500 meters.
Continuous Imaging with HSIS Technology A standout feature of the Lynx 3.0 series is the HIKMICRO Shutterless Imaging System (HSIS). Unlike traditional thermal optics that freeze momentarily to recalibrate (click), the HSIS ensures an uninterrupted, fluid viewing experience. Combined with the AI-powered Image Pro 3.0 algorithm, the LE10 delivers sharp, lag-free visuals on its crisp 0.39-inch OLED display, ensuring you never miss a moment in the field.
