From the shadows
Night vision and night combat capabilities are essential in modern armies and law enforcement units to achieve superior effectiveness. They are implemented through different technologies, each of which has certain advantages and disadvantages and is therefore optimal for different purposes. Essentially, these technologies are Image intensification (I²), thermal, and digital sensors (CMOS), as well as fusion of these technologies.
Applications range from observations to driving vehicles to combat and can be handheld or mounted on a helmet or weapon.
As German sales and service partner of Theon Sensors and Photonis Digital Vision, JK Defence & Security offers solutions of all above mentioned technologies for all applications.
In our own service workshop, we carry out maintenance and repairs for your equipment fleet – quickly and competent.
IMAGE INTENSIFICATION
Image intensifiers continue to be the devices of choice when it comes to operations in particularly dark light conditions. The proven technology allows detection, recognition and identification of targets at night and is particularly durable. Low power consumption enables long mission times with low weight. Binocular systems allow depth perception and are therefore suitable for driving vehicles.
JK Defence & Security is a long-standing sales and service partner of Theon Sensors and exclusively serves the German law enforcement market. Night vision devices from Theon Sensors are available with both European and US Generation III tubes.

DIGITAL NIGHT VISION
Digital night vision devices such as Photonis Digital Vision Low-Light and Ultra-Low-Light CMOS cameras bridge the gap between digital cameras and night vision or thermal imaging devices. In conditions between 2 and 1000 mlx, when there is still enough moonlight or other light sources available, digital products have certain capabilities, such as capturing still or moving images in a quality that allows evidential identification of targets.
TARGETING & ILLUMINATION LASERS
Handheld and weapon-mounted pointing and illumination lasers provide operators in the military and law enforcement agencies with a reliable way to identify and mark targets. Be it for navigation, target designation or coordination of actions – these devices are designed to be effective both day and night and are compatible with various weapon platforms. Their compactness, accuracy and versatility make them indispensable tools for professionals in a variety of scenarios where fast and clear target identification is of utmost importance.

FUSION
Fusion is the combination of at least two of the above technologies. Typically, this involves supplementing or “overlaying” the image produced by an image intensifier or digital night vision device with the image produced by a thermal imaging device. This process combines the different strengths that the various night vision technologies have into one system to provide even more superiority. Fused images can be produced by integrated devices or by using optional clip on devices, e.g. for image intensifiers.
