Aviation Specialties Unlimited (ASU) has renamed N16HT Pro, its wireless recording and image-sharing night vision system, to Ecliptus, to make it more appealing to a larger audience. It has also started a Kickstarter campaign for a new product for a military-grade NVG GoPro video recording device.
“Ecliptus is the first product designed and developed by ASU that can be used in a variety of places by a number of different people, said ASU president Jim Winkel. “The Ecliptus fully integrates and compactly couples a GoPro camera with an intensified night-vision-equipped device without the necessity for large, optical relay lenses that are commonly used today. This opens the device to outdoor enthusiasts, weekend warriors, extreme sports athletes and other consumers.”
ASU (Booth 2000) offers Ecliptus for $5,499, but the company is offering a discount on the product to early adopters on Kickstarter.
