Thermal imaging binocular Archer TGX-8/75 is an ultramodern compact optical device designed for monitoring and observing areas in limited visibility conditions: poor lighting, smoke, fog, and objects hidden by vegetation or merged with underlying terrain. A distinctive feature of this binocular is an integrated compact laser rangefinder of 1550 nm that accurately measures distance on the distant range.

The high-performance capabilities of the optical system, an extended set of functions and the ergonomic design of Archer TGX-8/75 make it an indispensable device for a wide range of applications.

The device is equipped with a highly sensitive passive receiver of a far infrared band (LWIR) with resolution and sensitivity within 20-30 mK. The binocular has two built-in colour high-resolution microdisplays and eyepieces with diopter adjustment and the ability to adjust the distance between the eyes.

Several set colour schemes allow choosing the necessary display option depending on the tasks performed.

An optical circuitry of Archer TGX-8/75 provides 3x optical magnification (using a detector with 640 х 512 resolution).

The device‘s display indicates operation modes, device status, and battery discharge. There are also modes of brightness and contrast control.

The device is equipped with proximity sensors that much reduce the risk of disclosure.

Archer TGX-8/75 design comes in a shockproof, waterproof plastic housing with conveniently arranged controls. Power is supplied via 6 AA-type batteries (lithium or rechargeable batteries).

Due to the high-tech electronics unit, excellent functional capacities of the device are realized by minimal dimensions and power consumption.
