VIRTUOSE thermal Multifunction Monocular : Showcasing French Technological Excellence

A concentration of French industrial expertise


Designed, developed, and manufactured in France, VIRTUOSE is more than just a monocular – it is a flagship of national industrial and technological innovation. Compact, lightweight, and highly capable, it meets the evolving needs of today’s security and defense forces – from infantry and artillery units to special operations and intelligence teams.



A lightweight multifunction monocular… packed with performance


Weighing less than 950 g (including batteries), VIRTUOSE delivers an unmatched performance-to-weight ratio. Its thermally optimized structure, ambidextrous design, and intuitive ergonomics make it ideal for sustained field use in the most demanding environments.


Key features :

  • Direct optical path with high light transmission (>85%) – usable even without batteries
    High-definition thermal vision (640×480 @ 17µm sensor – NETD < 30mK)
  • Long-range laser rangefinder (up to 3,500 m with <1 m accuracy)
  • Fast GPS positioning (TLE4-grade) and real-time target designation
  • Integrated photo/video capture and live video streaming
  • Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, USB-C connectivity – Compatible with ATAK, AFS®, SIC-S
  • Optimized battery life ≥ 6 hours (rechargeable or standard batteries)
  • Rugged and military-qualified design (IP68, MIL-STD 810G, MIL-STD-461F)



Built for connected, collaborative combat

In today’s operational theaters, rapid decision-making and information sharing are critical. VIRTUOSE fits seamlessly into modern C4ISR systems, enabling immediate threat assessment, fast target acquisition, and real-time data transmission to the chain of command. Its compatibility with Apexo Inc.’s AFS® ballistics system pushes long-range shooting precision even further.



Why is VIRTUOSE a true game-changer ?


✔️ It integrates in a single unit:

  • Daytime direct-view optics
  • Nighttime thermal imaging
  • Laser rangefinding
  • Target geolocation and designation
  • Real-time streaming and data sharing
  • Seamless integration with battlefield management systems

✔️ It replaces multiple devices in one compact tool, reducing operator burden and increasing operational agility.

✔️ It offers exceptional DRI (Detection, Recognition, Identification) capabilities – day or night.



Designed for every mission scenario

Whether deployed in coastal surveillance, urban combat, or long-range reconnaissance, VIRTUOSE is engineered for high endurance. It withstands extreme environments including shock, humidity, salt, and dust, while maintaining peak optical and thermal performance.



VIRTUOSE is a symbol of French innovation in defense. Compact, connected, rugged, and powerful, it redefines what’s possible in observation, reconnaissance, and precision targeting.
