Night vision binoculars are a useful optical device that allows you to observe various objects and phenomena from a sufficiently long distance, both in conditions of poor lighting, for example, at dusk, and in complete darkness. The areas of its application are very diverse: traveling by car in the dark, search and rescue operations, navigation on the water, sports orientation, hunting, scientific observations of nocturnal animals, astronomy, and so on. Nevertheless, this fairly common category of optics is represented by a very limited number of models and brands, because to create truly worthwhile night vision binoculars, the manufacturer requires skill in the whole spectrum of specific areas.

Indeed, in contrast to plain ordinary binoculars, suitable only for use with sufficient illumination, night vision devices are digital, they are very powerful, and often multifunctional. Therefore, in addition to the eyepiece and the lens, representatives of this category necessarily include a display, a sensor, an electronic image processing unit, a power supply unit and an infrared illuminator, which, unlike a flashlight or headlights, is invisible to people and most animals, but at the same time significantly improves the quality of observation, as well as its range.

Some of the best models can not only display what is happening at the moment, but also record video and take pictures in the dark. Therefore, such devices can be very, very useful in various naturalistic observations and at sporting events. According to customer reviews, some of them can even become a good alternative to a budget camera for night shooting, which largely explains their popularity.
