TD32 Scope

Pard's TD32 boasts the company's latest technological innovations. Its Dual Spectra Imaging technology combines long-distance thermal detection, high-definition night vision, a ballistics calculator, and a Laser Rangefinder into a single unit.

Featuring a 384x288 resolution IR thermal sensor, 35mm lens (providing 7.5-degree x5.6-degree FOV), 2.4x optical magnification, 2x digital magnification, 12µm pixel pitch and ≤25mK Noise Equivalent Temperature Difference (NETD), the unit boasts rich contrast and bold resolution when acquiring (and ranging) targets with the 1200-yard integrated laser range finder. From there, the gathered information is input into the on-board ballistics’ calculator.

An integrated CMOS 1920x1080 visible light sensor combines a 50mm lens, 4.5-9x magnification, 6.4-degree x3.6-degree FOV and visibility down to .001 lux. Available in either 850nm or 940nm versions, the VCSEL IR illuminator has three levels of intensity, and directional focus out to 350m.

Next, the TD32's IPS LCD thermal imaging and night vision is displayed on the 800x800 IPS LCD display independently or simultaneously, with the picture-in-picture (PIP) function providing a clear heat signature and night-vision depth perception. Display options include six different reticle styles, four different reticle colors and six different thermal image modes.

Additional features of the TD32 include a removable TF card (up to 128GB) that allows the user to capture 2592x1944 HD picture images and 1024x768 HD video; WIFI connectivity to PC, tablet, iOS or Android device through the use of the free PardVision app; USB Type-C & HDMI output connections; IP67 weatherproofing (protection against airborne dust and 3ft water submersion for up to 30 minutes); recoil proof to 6000J (approximately the recoil of a .308 Winchester); a -4 F-122 F operating temperature; HOT image tracking (automatically follows the heat source); a gyroscope; loop recording; an electronic compass; a microphone; and lithium ion 21700 removable/rechargeable batteries. Despite these many features, the unit tips the scales at right around 800g. For more information visit pard.com. MSRP $4099
