(Lewisville, Texas) iRayUSA, the United States Distributor of InfiRay Outdoor thermal optics, introduces the newest model in the HYBRID line of thermal weapon sights, the HYL50W — the first 90 Hz thermal weapon sight in the consumer hunting market.

First introduced as the powerful combination of a thermal weapon sight and a thermal clip-on unit, the HYBRID line-up continues to evolve with specialized models, top-performing sensors, and an advanced feature set designed for technical shooters. The combination of the HYBRID’s low-distortion orthoscopic eyepiece and a 1.03-inch large-format 2560×1920 display provides comfortable viewing, a sharp image, and massive eye relief. The HYBRID also unlocks advanced features such as compatibility with a 1,000 yard laser rangefinder, a custom ballistic reticle generator, wireless remote, and an onboard ballistic solver. This year, the HYBRID family expands with the addition of a 50 mm 90 Hz model (HYL50W), optimized for smooth motion and fast moving targets.

“The increase in refresh rate in thermal optics has been a steady journey across the industry,” said Pliny Gale, InfiRay Outdoor Marketing & Communications Manager. “From 9 Hz, to 25, to 30, 50, 60, and now 90 Hz, faster refresh rates mean smoother motion and a more authentic real-time image. Just like in gaming monitors and FPV drones, a thermal viewer with a faster refresh rate feels snappier and more real-to-life and less like video playback.” Read more
