ATN Corp, a U.S. leader in thermal imaging with more than 30 years of experience, today released a major firmware update for the ATN ThOR 6 Elite thermal rifle scope. The new firmware sharpens image quality out of the box, speeds contrast response, tightens digital zoom clarity, and improves battery recognition — extending the ThOR 6 Elite’s position as the best thermal rifle scope on the market for serious hunters, coyote hunters, hog hunters, and long-range shooters.

The update is free for all ThOR 6 Elite owners and installs through the ATN Connect 6 app or via USB-C.

Miamisburg, Ohio – Steiner eOptics introduces the M830rc X LRF 1535nm, a laser rangefinder binocular now featuring seamless connectivity to the A.T.A.K. (Android Tactical Assault Kit) Battle Management System. Through a newly developed interface, targets lased with the M830rc X LRF are instantly transferred into the A.T.A.K. Battle Management System and displayed on a shared, real-time digital map, making them immediately visible to all users across the network.

The integration is activated through a straightforward software update to the binocular’s Bluetooth module, ensuring full compatibility with both newly acquired and previously fielded M830rc X LRF 1535nm units. Once updated, operators can transmit a lased target’s bearing, distance, and elevation angle directly to A.T.A.K. at the press of a single button. In conjunction with the built-in GPS receiver, the system automatically calculates and plots precise target coordinates on the digital situation map. Operators can further enrich each target entry with additional information — such as target type, estimated strength and observed behavior — via the connected smart device, making it instantly available to all users within the network.

The result is a significant improvement in the speed and accuracy of intelligence dissemination: manual data entry is eliminated, along with the associated risk of human error in relaying time-critical position data. The Germany-made Steiner M830rc X LRF 1535nm represents the latest generation of laser rangefinder binoculars and combines advanced sensor integration with enhanced operational capability.

Designed for extreme operational and environmental conditions, the M830rc X LRF 1535nm combines several mission-critical capabilities in a rugged, compact form factor. Read more
