(NASDAQ:LPTH)(\"LightPath,\" the \"Company,\" or \"we\"), a leading vertically integrated and integrator of proprietary optical and infrared components and high-level assemblies, today announced the expansion of its line of long wave infrared (LWIR 8-12um) thermal lens assemblies for thermal weapon sights, thermal monoculars and thermal binoculars. The 75mm F/1.0 LWIR TWS lens assembly's part number is 7100406.Detect your target at distance! Product Description:LightPath's 75mm EFL lens features a large f/1.0 aperture for excellent light collection. This lens is optimized to be used with an uncooled microbolometer up to VGA resolution, producing an 8deg HFOV on a VGA-17µm detector, or a 6deg HFOV on a VGA-12µm detector. With near diffraction-limited MTF, 97% relative illumination across the full field of view, this lens is ideal for applications requiring high image quality. LightPath offers both high efficiency anti-reflective (HEAR) and diamond-like carbon (DLC) coatings for the optimal balance of transmission and durability for rugged environments.DRI for 17µm pixel detector (assumes 1.5m critical dimension)Detection (1.5 POT) = 4.4km rangeRecognition (6 POT) = 1.1km rangeIdentification (12 POT) = 550m rangeDRI for 12µm pixel detector (assumes 1.5m critical dimension)Detection (1.5 POT) = 6.25km rangeRecognition (6 POT) = 1.56km rangeIdentification (12 POT) = 780m rangeLightPath Technologies, a global leader in optical design, single-point diamond turning and molding of infrared lens elements and assemblies, has had great success providing its proven infrared imaging portfolio to the market. With catalog options on effective focal lengths ranging from 1.5mm to 75mm, and a wider variety of custom IR lens assemblies, the top 5 leading commercial infrared camera builders and a growing number of defense contractors are incorporating LightPath designs into their thermal weapon sight, thermal binocular, thermal monocular and clip-on thermal camera programs.\"This development enhances LightPath's ability to provider longer range optics to potential OEM partners for great DRI capability on the newest microbolometers,\" said Devin Standard, Business Development Spearhead, and an IR Technology Specialist at LightPath. \"I am delighted to announce that the 75mm t...
