Theon Sensors TALOS — Clip-On Thermal Weapon Sight
Technical specifications
Technical overview
Theon Sensors' TALOS is the solution for special forces units and snipers who need night shooting capability without giving up the daytime optics they already master. Unlike thermal sights that completely replace the existing scope, the TALOS is a clip-on that mounts in front of the shooter's daytime optics, transmitting the thermal image through the original scope's ocular. The shooter maintains their habitual shooting position, zero references, and familiar interface.
The 640×480 17µm uncooled LWIR sensor with continuous NUC provides high-uniformity thermal imaging under variable ambient temperature — critical in operations that start at dusk and end at dawn with 15-20°C temperature variations. The detection range of 1,800 meters for a human-sized target allows the shooter to confirm the target's nature at distances beyond the firing range before making the shot decision — complying with Rules of Engagement for peacekeeping and counterinsurgency missions.
Compatibility with Theon's ARTEMIS family allows the shooter to use the TALOS as the engagement sight and the ARTEMIS binocular as long-distance observation with the same image reference — together they form the complete night precision system for the sniper-observer pair.
