16x40 GyroStabilized BinocularsSIB 1640GR device is used in various fields of observation and identification of distant objects in the terrain in order to solve a number of practical tasks. High magnification easiness in carrying and handling allow use of the device in almost inaccessible places and in nonstandard observation conditions. Shaking and vibration do not worsen the image quality of the device with image stabilization. The device is the complex optomechanical system which forms an observed space image in an eyepiece focal plane. The system is based on a prisms block kinematically linked with a gyro stabilizing assembly rotor which ensures stability in the device axis of sight space irrespective of angular oscillation of the device itself. The gyro assembly frequency characteristics are chosen in such a way that the operator's hands' inherent vibration transferred to the device frame are damped out rather effectively. The control action of a gyro assembly magnetic corrector ensures automatic agreement of the axis of sight and the device frame resulting in the observed objects search capability with the velocity up to 6 angular degrees per second.

SIB 1640GR binoculars viewing device gives a real possibility to observe the required terrain and identify distant objects from moving and nonmoving vehicles (cars helicopters water transport). If image stabilization is not necessary one can use the device as ordinary binoculars with magnification of 16x.

Requires 6 AA batteries. Also comes with a DC Adapter.
