Product showcases the first integration of Seek’s CompactXR thermal image camera into a night vision scope at a price point of less than $500
SANDPOINT, Idaho, December 21, 2015 – Inteliscope LLC today announced it is now shipping the patented Inteliscope PRO+ Rifle Mount for Seek Thermal’s award-winning CompactXR thermal imaging camera. Inteliscope is the first company to integrate the Compact XR into a night vision scope at a price point of $497.
“With a highly successful pre-sale campaign for the Inteliscope PRO+ Rifle Mount for Seek’s CompactXR, we could not be more pleased to bring this product to market,” said Jason Giddings, Inteliscope’s CEO. “This product is such a great example of how Inteliscope is tapping into the latest technologies to help our customer base perform better and be safer in the field.”
“We are excited to see new innovations through the use of our products and SDK starting with Inteliscope’s mounting kit,” said Tracy Benson, VP of Global Marketing for Seek Thermal. “The idea that the Inteliscope team could quickly make an accessory suitable for their customers leveraging the same smartphone CompactXR device and Seekware SDK at affordable prices is remarkable.”
The $497 Inteliscope PRO+ Rifle Mount bundle provides a quality night vision experience for a fraction of the cost of stand-alone units. The Inteliscope PRO+ mounts any smartphone to the shooters rifle and the Seek XR is integrated into the PRO+ mount using a snap-in bracket with a short extending cable to the phone, providing firm support to improve accuracy and eliminate issues with high recoil. Seek’s CompactXR can detect temperatures from -40° up to 626° Fahrenheit, with the ability to detect heat up to 1,800 feet away.

How well will my iPhone or android phone hold up to multiple shots. Like in the recoil aspect.
It says to eliminate issues with high recoil. But I bet my phone isn’t set up for recoil. And can I use this in another country. Does it account for wind and temp out side. And can I post my “kills” on Facebook or Twitter? That last part was a joke.
So the purpose of night vision and thermal imagers is to afford the user complete control of his environment by allowing him to stay completely covert – unseen. This thing uses your cell phone as the eye piece; essentially shining a bright back-lit OLED screen back at the user, telling every animal and/or bad guy that you are there. Brilliant.
You’re onto something there Chip, I tend to agree.
iCombat from Apple. Someone should brand name it.
Route that image through one of those goofy gaming goggles you can clip your smart phone into. Now you’re like the Land Warrior super gun that you can shoot around a corner.
What do you do if you forget to set it to airplane mode and get a call?
You say to your enemy “Excuse me, would you mind holding just a moment…?”
LOL! Good one D.B.
