Two strange thermal scopes found on ebay - anyone know them?
« on: December 14, 2022, 12:23:42 pm »
Hi. I just found two handheld thermal imagers:
DiOP Cadet75: https://www.ebay.com/itm/204185953488?
ISAP HH750: https://www.ebay.com/itm/204185621197?
They both sold cheap and I've never seen them before. Anyone knows what's inside those?

Unfortunately these are pretty likely to be highly customized units rather than simpler COTS cores. Wouldn't recommend them for core harvesting

Diop 75:

I would guess (and no more) at this using the Lockheed BAe VOx ?

Yes there will be a lot of overlaid firmware etc for the record / visual.

Thank you.
I guess it may have the same DRS sensor as Cairns Viper, because the company and specs are the same (DIOP, 320x240, 60hz, 70mk).

Teardown of Cairns Viper  :

With PCB by DIOP in the Cairns I would go with the same electronics set partially repackaged in the DIOP-75.  Never had one of those so cannot help with pinouts etc.

Will be a nice lens though
