What is AMOLED, and Why Does it Matter for the Contractor Line?

Armasight’s Contractor line of thermal imaging scopes is equipped with state-of-the-art AMOLED (Active Matrix Organic Light Emitting Diode) displays, delivering unparalleled clarity, contrast, and energy efficiency. The Contractor 320 and Contractor 640 models stand out as premium thermal scopes for professionals and enthusiasts alike, providing superior imaging that makes hunting, surveillance, and other nighttime operations more effective and precise.

AMOLED displays use organic compounds that emit light when an electric current is passed through them. Unlike LCDs, which require a constant backlight, AMOLED allows each pixel to produce its own light, leading to significant advantages in thermal imaging:

1. True Blacks and High Contrast: AMOLED technology excels in delivering true black by turning off individual pixels, giving users a much sharper contrast. This feature is particularly valuable in thermal scopes like the Contractor series, where the ability to differentiate between subtle heat signatures can mean the difference between spotting a target and missing it.
2. Energy Efficiency: Since only the necessary pixels are lit, AMOLED displays consume less power, leading to longer battery life in the field. The Contractor 640 benefits from this, allowing for extended use during long operations without frequent battery changes.
3. Vivid and Detailed Imagery: AMOLED displays produce bright, vibrant colors and deep blacks, creating a high-contrast image that is essential for thermal imaging. This is especially important in hunting, where detecting animals in dense foliage or low-light conditions requires crystal-clear visuals.
4. Rapid Refresh Rate: With refresh rates as low as 1 millisecond, the Contractor scopes equipped with AMOLED screens provide smooth, real-time imaging, even when tracking fast-moving targets. This feature ensures that hunters or tactical personnel can react quickly to changing conditions without lag in their display.
