Dual-Sensor Thermal & Digital Imaging

The Ponbos Z10 combines two separate imaging technologies in a single binocular-style observation device.

The thermal channel detects infrared energy emitted by people, animals, equipment and surrounding objects. This allows heat signatures to be observed without relying on visible light.

The separate GC4653 digital imaging channel captures conventional scene detail and works with the integrated 850nm infrared illuminator for night-time digital viewing.

This dual-sensor configuration gives users access to both heat-signature detection and conventional scene observation.

256 × 192 Thermal Imaging

The Z10 features a 256 × 192 thermal detector for heat-source observation.

Unlike conventional cameras, thermal imaging detects infrared energy rather than depending on visible illumination. This allows the thermal channel to locate warm subjects during both daytime and darkness.

7mm F1.0 Wide-Angle Thermal Lens

The thermal channel uses a 7mm objective lens with an F1.0 aperture.

Its short focal length provides a relatively wide viewing perspective suited to scanning surrounding areas.

The thermal field of view measures approximately:

Horizontal: 24.8°
Vertical: 18.7°

This wide viewing area is particularly useful when locating heat signatures across farms, properties and outdoor environments.

4MP GC4653 Digital Camera

The Z10 incorporates a separate 4MP GC4653 visible-light sensor with a 25mm lens.

This digital imaging channel provides conventional scene information and supports daytime, low-light and infrared-assisted observation.

It also provides the imaging channel used for the device's digital photo and video functions.

5W 850nm Infrared Night Vision

An integrated 5W 850nm infrared illuminator provides additional illumination for the digital camera in dark environments.

The infrared system features nine selectable brightness levels, allowing illumination output to be adjusted for different observation conditions.

Up to 10X Digital Zoom

The Z10 provides digital enlargement up to 10X, allowing distant areas of the displayed scene to be enlarged for closer viewing.

Digital zoom enlarges the displayed image rather than changing the native resolution of the thermal or digital imaging sensors.

3.99-Inch TFT Colour Display

Thermal and digital imagery is presented through an integrated 3.99-inch TFT colour display.

The large screen provides a convenient interface for observation, image review, recording functions and device settings.

Photo & Video Recording

The Ponbos Z10 supports both photo capture and video recording.

Selectable video output settings include:

• 5K
• 4K
• 2K
• 1080p

Selectable photo output settings include:

• 60MP
• 42MP
• 36MP
• 30MP
• 24MP

These photo and video specifications relate to the device's digital imaging and recording functions and should not be confused with the native 256×192 thermal detector resolution.

Up to 128GB Storage

The Z10 supports TF/MicroSD memory cards from 4GB to 128GB for storing captured photos and video recordings.

This provides expandable storage for longer observation sessions and recorded outdoor footage.

10,000mAh Rechargeable Battery

A rechargeable 3.7V lithium battery with a listed 10,000mAh capacity provides portable cordless power for the Z10.

USB Type-C Connection

The Z10 features a USB Type-C interface, providing a modern physical connection for the device.

Integrated Flashlight

A separate visible-light flashlight is built into the Z10, providing conventional illumination when required.

The flashlight operates separately from the 850nm infrared illuminator used for digital night vision.

Compact Outdoor Design

The Ponbos Z10 measures approximately 170 × 150 × 57mm and weighs approximately 480g, providing a portable binocular-style configuration for outdoor observation.

The device operates across a listed temperature range of approximately -20°C to 60°C.

Suitable Applications

The Ponbos Z10 is suitable for:

• Wildlife observation
• Farm monitoring
• Property inspection
• Camping
• Outdoor exploration
• Night-time observation
• Search-support activities
• General heat-source detection
• Remote-area monitoring
• Low-light scene recording

Safety & Care

Avoid pointing the thermal detector, digital camera or infrared illuminator directly at the sun, lasers, welding arcs or other intense energy sources, as this can damage the device.

Keep the lenses clean and dry and use compatible memory cards, chargers and accessories.
