Xinfrared EYE III E3 plus
EYE III E3 plus
The InfiRay EYE III series is a pocket-sized thermal vision monocular for exploring outdoors, at night and in low light conditions. EYE III reveals your surroundings and helps you see people, objects and animals over a thousand meters away. Simple to use, with recording of still images and videos, EYE III is the ideal companion for the hunt.
The Eye III E3 Plus has a 25mm lens that collects heat radiation. The default field of view on this thermal monocular is 10.5 by 7.9 degrees. It has a 4 times digital zoom to enlarge the image.
Behind the lens of the Eye III E3 Plus, you can find the 384 x 288 pixel (uncooled, 12 micrometer) core which refreshes the image at 50 Hz. The thermal contrast (NETD) of this thermal monocular is < 25mK.
The physical dimensions of this thermal monocular indicate 180 x 54 x 54 mm (lwh) and the scale indicates 480 grams. This device is rated IP67. It withstands dust, shocks, water (splash) and submersion under water. It is designed to operate at temperatures between -20°C and 50°C.
The Eye III E3 Plus can be used in scanning and surveillance, hunting adventures and police operations.
DRI range
DRI stands for Detection, Recognition and Identification and is based on the widely used Johnson Criteria.
- Detection Detect if an object is present
- Recognition See what type of object it is (person, vehicle, aircraft)
- Identification For example seeing if someone is friend or foe
| Detection | Recognition | Identification | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Rabbit | 375 meters | 93 meters | 46 meters |
| People | 1319 meters | 329 meters | 164 meters |
| Vehicle | 3194 meters | 798 meters | 399 meters |
What is the difference with the sister model "Max"
The Max is identical in construction to the Plus, except for the lens used. A 25mm lens is used in the E3 Plus. In the "Max" model, on the other hand, a 35 mm lens. The 25mm lens is best recommended for shorter distances and mixed areas with forests and frequent feeding distances.
It doesn't have as good imaging performance as the "Max" at the longer distances, but due to the smaller objective lens diameter it has a wider cone of view and lower optical magnification (3.5x). The Max, on the other hand, has a narrow field of view and a large base magnification (5x). It is therefore particularly suitable for long distances (120m+) and terrain areas.
InfiRay Eye III series of devices with useful improvements
Infiray Outdoor completely repositions itself with the Mate, Affo and Eye III devices. The Eye III Max is probably the manufacturer's largest volume model and therefore features various improvements. The design of the device has been completely revised and with the Eye III models, Infiray finally says goodbye to the "teardrop shape" of the previous devices. The housings are now made of a tube, without conical shapes. The control unit has also been completely redesigned. The Eye III Plus is now controlled via a rotary wheel and an additional button. The controls are much more intuitive with this layout, even in total darkness.
Useful details and features
In addition to the fundamental innovations in terms of technology and design, InfiRay has brought to the Eye devices some very useful detail improvements:
- Quick charge function - The Eye III Max has a quick charge function, similar to many mobile devices. The thermal camera can be charged to approximately 90% capacity in one hour.
- Magnetic charging cable - The charging cable is fixed by magnetic force. The charging connector is thus better protected against inadvertent connections and disconnections or accidental tearing.
- Microphone for sound during video recording - InfiRay now equips its devices with microphones for the first time. Sound during video recording can be recorded for better atmosphere and commentary.
