Defective Pixel Repair

When using the device, defective (dead) pixels may appear on the microbolometer. These are bright or dark points of a constant brightness that are visible on the image.

Defective pixels on the microbolometer can increase in size relatively when digital zoom is activated.

Trail 2 LRF thermal riflescopes offer the possibility of removing any defective pixels on the microbolometer using software, as well as to cancel any deletion.
