NOBLEX Thermal Tablet helps in the fight against Corona

• Thermal imaging technology enables contactless temperature measurements within seconds
• Effective entry surveillance for companies and public institutions

In the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic, companies and public institutions need innovative solutions to counteract the spread of the virus. The “NOBLEX Thermal Tablet“ uses thermal imaging technology to measure the temperature of a person within seconds and without contact – with an accuracy of 0.1 degrees. An elevated body temperature can be considered not only a first warning sign, but also a symptom of an infection. “The NOBLEX Thermal Tablet enables quick and effective screenings at the entrances of public institutions or companies“, says Hubert Bodächtel, Sales Manager at NOBLEX, a company specializing in the production of high-quality optics and thermal imaging technologies.

Tablet identifies potential risk persons 
The system combines thermographic detection with an optical camera, providing the best possible recognition system for employees or visitors to date. If the pre-defined temperature limit has been exceeded, a message appears on the display and an optional audio warning is given. Possible risk persons can thus be immediately documented. Thanks to artificial intelligence, the NOBLEX thermo tablet can also detect whether or not the screened person is wearing protective clothing such a nose-and-mouth mask. “This means that in particularly sensitive areas, access can only be granted with appropriate protective clothing, or the missing equipment can be identified directly by the tablet,“ explains Bodächtel.

Autonomous operation
The tablet is an effective and practicable solution for companies of all industries and sizes, public institutions such as schools, government offices, sports and cultural facilities, but also for organizers of large events. The operation is autonomous and does not require any additional hardware. The NOBLEX thermo tablet can also be used at airports, train stations, restaurants and hotels.
The technology is also attractive for companies that already have automated access systems implemented in their buildings. The tablet can be customized and integrated into existing databases, and in complete compliance with data protection regulations. “With this affordable high-tech innovation, we also enable smaller companies and public institutions to provide more security for their visitors, employees and customers“, emphasizes Hubert Bodächtel.

The NOBLEX NTT 100 thermo tablet with integrated thermal imaging camera is available exclusively at www.noblex-thermal.com for 1,975.00 Euro plus VAT.

Always with you, always looking ahead

Most of the detailed images of objects in the distance that we see these days have been „served“ to us via a smartphone as an image file. But there are so many leisure activities where it is very much worthwhile to take a closer look yourself. Especially those countless bird watchers, nature lovers, hikers, fishermen and hunters. Even though they may be equipped with high-quality binoculars, the small, essential details of their hobby or passion often remain hidden from view. Details that make all the difference in the world. The difference between ama-teurs and professionals - simply observing or looking for details. Such precious moments can only be captured by a high-magnification spotting scope. Unfortunately, such telescopes were expensive, unwieldy and heavy, so that even if they were readily available, they rarely found their way into the hunter’s backpack.
With the new powerful NS 8–24 x 50 mini spotting scope, NOBLEX now presents you with a scope that is not only handy and light, but also affordable. Equipped with an optical zoom that can be changed from 8x to 24x magnifi-cation in the blink of an eye, and a powerful 50 mm lens diameter, the mini spotting scope can begin there where conventional binoculars have reached their limits. While manufacturing the objective lenses, a special glass with anomalous partial dispersion (ED) was used to ensure sharp and colour-neutral observations even at high mag-nifications (24x). Optimised for eyeglass wearers, the precision eyepiece with a viewing angle of 35 degrees and a legendary short overall length of only 22 cm makes the NS 8–24 x 50 a true lightweight in its class, weighing in at only 530 g. This means that the Noblex mini spotting scope can even fit into a jacket pocket, and can thus become a practical daily companion for anyone who wishes to take a closer look for themselves. The scope of delivery includes a neoprene ever-ready case. The MSRP in Germany is € 349,-.

The binoculars for ambitious water sports enthusiasts with full perspective

Seaworthy porro binoculars with a sighting compass and 7x magnification are still standard navigation equipment to have on board, even in the age of GPS. With the new model inception, the manufacturer NOBLEX, based in the Thuringian Eisfeld, has launched a new pair of binoculars on the market, which bring a breath of fresh air to the market segment with their modern design, high optical performance and optimised price-performance ratio.

Can you still distinguish a high-quality binocular from a low-priced product today? In the past, the well-known brand names were a guarantee for highest optical quality. Today, the only difference between binoculars for water sports is often the type labels and manufacturer logos. As is so often the case in everyday life on board, it is the intrinsic values that count.
The wheat is often separated from the chaff at first sight when looking through the glass. Good optics for use on board require not only high-quality materials but also the necessary know-how, and of course the ability to produce at high standards. This includes clean-room technology, modern coating systems and access to high-quality glass types for the lenses and prisms used in the products. If one of these is missing, the quality will inevitably drop. Even elegant packaging and a dashing marine name will not help. If you want to play in the highest league within the optical industry, you have to invest in hard- and software.
This was the case with NOBLEX in Eisfeld. The company that emerged from the former Docter Optik brand now offers products relevant to water sports, among which are the first binoculars in the new NF series, the inception.


A binocular for inland and coastal skippers

With its broad-shouldered porro-construction, it is obvious that the new NOBLEX inception has grown sea legs. With its well-known characteristics (7x magnification and 50 mm objective diameter), the entry-level inception offers a field of view of 124 m at 1000 m and is waterproof to a depth of 1 meter. The optics are designed for the ambitious beginner making his first strokes near the coast or for the inland skipper who wants to maintain an overview in busy waters.
As befits a reasonable seafaring glass, manufacturer NOBLEX has implanted a Suunto compass into the inception, which meets the special requirements needed on a sports boat.
Thanks to its 20 mm compass rose, the fine lines in the binoculars‘ field of view can be clearly read and is a reliable aid in navigating even in wind and weather.
Thanks to the nitrogen filling inside the binocular housing, the optics are always fog-free and ready for use and, thanks to the high light transmission of over 92 percent, always clear and rich in contrast even in low light conditions such as at dusk or during a gathering storm.

The robust and floatable inception from NOBLEX with integrated Suunto compass is priced at 349 Euros and will be available in specialist shops from spring 2020.

In the last 80 years, production increased to around 300,000 units p. a., the company grew to the largest binoculars manufacturer in Europe.

Products from the traditional German Company DOCTOR OPTIK are now sold under the Company name NOBLEX. NOBLEX GmbH, manufacturer of high-quality optical products for hunting, target shooting, outdoor and leisure activities, is strengthening its brand image.
