ENFORCE TAC 22: PumIR - Small attachment device for large telescopic sights

For users of highly magnifying rifle scopes, Andres Industries has developed a small thermal imaging attachment device with exceptional performance. With the PumIR-6M, which is small for a 35mm optic, Andres Industries AG is opening a new chapter in the development of thermal imaging attachment devices.

When conventional attachment devices are mounted in front of a highly magnifying rifle scope, as used by DMR or snipers, only a highly magnified section of the thermal imaging device's screen is often visible. The field of view is uncomfortably small and the image quality is poor. Even modern battle sights like the ACOG with 4x magnification already face problems, as they do not have a zoom function.

Andres Industries now presents a solution specifically for this customer group with the PumIR-6M.5. Here, the sensor image is optically reduced by a factor of two on the display.

Even with the Trijicon ACOG 4x32, an image of the entire sensor width with an unrestricted resolution of 640x512 pixels is possible. When precisely collimated on the weapon by the shooter, the electronic zoom levels up to 8x can be used. This is also not possible with conventional devices. Through integrated AI upscaling and Subpixel Collimation (SPC), groupings of 8cm at 500m are achieved.

The PumIR can be attached directly to a rifle scope using a Rusan adapter or preferably a "Präziser Jagen" adapter. It can also be directly mounted on a Picatinny rail via a Recknagel mounting rail. The latter is even more precise, but not allowed in all countries.

New and unique for an attachment device is the option of increasing the range with the help of an attachment lens. The problem here is that additional optics introduced into the system always require correction, as otherwise there will be point-of-impact deviations. This issue is addressed with the PumIR by collimating the lens and the entire system. When attached, which can be done within seconds with the bayonet lock, the PumIR automatically retrieves the corrected optic data from memory. The user does not need to adjust anything manually and is immediately ready for use.

Up to six weapon/optics combinations can be set up in this way. This allows the PumIR to be used on different weapons, optics, or cameras without having to zero in each time.

Additional accessories can be mounted on top of the PumIR, such as a laser rangefinder or a radio transmission unit in the future. Currently, there is already an adapter available for mounting an Aimpoint ACRO.

Just like its larger sibling TigIR and its smaller sister TILO, the PumIR is equipped with AI upscaling function that significantly enhances sensor resolution. In combination with Andres Industries' developed SPC (Subpixel Collimation), this improvement can be directly translated into precision performance.

The market launch of the PumIR is planned for mid-2022. Both the military and civilian versions can be viewed at the exhibition stands of Andres Industries AG:
