Phokus Research Group - Hopliite Night Vision Focusing Cover

The Hoplite was developed by SOF end users to reduce far to near focusing time accomplished through its hinged aperture control. This patented technology provides unrivaled speed for target identification of threats at 5 feet or 300 yards. The hinged cover provides a critical advantage by allowing NVG's to stay focused out to infinity while simultaneously allowing Target ID of near threats by flipping the cover closed. Warfighters commonly modify their dust covers to gain this same advantage only to discover unreliable transitioning and functional inconsistency.

Equipment protection was our next concern. Tens of thousands of NVG's are damaged each year due to lens scratches and cracks. The Hoplite's design replaces existing dust covers and sacrificial lenses.
