Key Features of the HIKMICRO HABROK 4K Series
Thermal Core and Sensor Technology
256 × 192 VOx Sensor
At the heart of the HABROK 4K lies a 256×192 resolution thermal detector, with a 12μm pixel pitch, ensuring strong thermal sensitivity across a wide temperature band.
12μm Pixel Pitch and 35mK Sensitivity
With a NETD of <35mK, the sensor captures subtle temperature differences and thermal outlines—essential for locating camouflaged animals or identifying movement behind foliage and brush.
4K Optical Imaging Capabilities
3840 × 2160 CMOS Sensor
The 1/1.8” progressive scan CMOS optical sensor delivers ultra-high 4K resolution (3840×2160), allowing for detailed visual observation during daytime hours—even in high-glare environments.
60mm Lens with Smart IR and Night Modes
The optical lens is 60mm, F2.2, optimized for both daylight clarity and infrared enhancement at night. With Smart IR and Auto/Night modes, the device seamlessly adapts to light conditions for 24-hour usability.
OLED Display and Visual Clarity
0.49” 1920 × 1080 OLED Display
A large OLED screen projects full-color visuals or thermal overlays in HD 1920 × 1080 resolution, offering a comfortable and immersive viewing experience.
Thermal Palettes and Correction Modes
Four thermal palettes—Black Hot, White Hot, Red Hot, and Fusion—help users customize the thermal view to match their terrain and preferences. The unit also supports Auto, Manual, and External FFC (Flat Field Correction) for clean, calibrated images.
IR Illumination and Night Viewing Range
850nm (HE25L) vs 940nm (HE25LN)
- HE25L emits IR at 850nm, ideal for longer-range illumination (up to 400m) with minimal visible red glow.
- HE25LN uses 940nm IR, reducing visible output further, providing stealthier performance up to 350m.
Range up to 400m
This powerful IR illumination enables target recognition even in low-light or no-light conditions, extending the usability of these binoculars into the night.
Zoom Range and Detection Power
5.5x–22x Optical, 4.3x–17.2x Thermal Zoom
The optical zoom range is 5.5x to 22x, perfect for close inspections and wide scans. The thermal zoom spans 4.3x to 17.2x, ensuring both zoom tracks remain flexible and high-quality.
1200m Detection with F1.0 Thermal Lens
Despite its compact size, the 25mm F1.0 thermal lens detects heat signatures at up to 1200 meters—ideal for long-range observation.
Laser Rangefinder Technology
1000m Ranging
Equipped with a 905nm Class 1 laser, the HABROK 4K delivers precise range readings of up to 1000 meters, with ±1m accuracy—essential for safe navigation, accurate distance calculation, and tactical planning.
Recording and Storage Features
Audio/Video with 64GB Memory
Capture crisp audio and video using the built-in microphone and 64GB eMMC internal storage, which can hold hours of footage and high-resolution images without additional cards.
Photo Capture and Standby Mode
Easily snap thermal or optical photos with a single press. Use Standby Mode to preserve battery life during downtime.
