Infrared Viewer Abris-M 2000 version 2

High performance infrared monocular viewers are designed to observe radiation emitted by infrared sources. They can be used to observe indirect radiation of IR LED's and diode lasers, Nd:YAG, Ti:Sapphire, Cr:Forsterite, dye lasers and other laser sources. IR viewers are ideal for applications involving the alignment of infrared laser beams and of optical components in near-infrared systems.
The light weight, compact monocular may be used as a hand-held or facemask mounted for hands free operation.

Ultraviolet viewers are designed to observe radiation emitted by UV sources.

Applications:

Laser alignment and safety
Lasers, which can be observed with IR-viewers:
GaAs laser diodes @800 - 950nm, GaAlAs @1350nm, Nd:YAG @ 1064nm,
Ti:Sapphire @ 690 - 1000nm, Li:F₂ @1090 - 1270nm, Cr: Forsterite @ 1150 - 1350nm etc.
Near IR viewers are extremely important for locating stray beam reflections that may cause eye damage or injury.

Semiconductor inspection

New Application! From Optics.Org: Infrared light probes varicose veins.
An infrared digital imaging system will be used to compare three varicose vein treatments.

New Application! From Optics.Org: Infrared light detects tooth decay.
A dentist’s toolkit for detecting tooth decay could soon include an infrared-imaging system. Shining infrared light with a wavelength of 1310 nm through a tooth is an effective way to spot early decay, according to a team from the University of California at San Francisco, US.

Thermal imaging
The IR-viewers can be used to image the thermal radiation of objects above 600°C (such as kilns, furnaces or solder pots). Objects in this temperature range (and hotter) emit enough infrared radiation in the 0.8-1.5 micron wavelength range to be imaged.

Night vision
Invisible near-infrared illuminator is used as a light source for night vision applications.
