The Thales Angénieux Monie is a night vision goggle system developed by Thales Group in collaboration with Angénieux. It is designed for use in low-light environments and supports both monocular and binocular configurations. The system is distinguished by its compact design and compatibility with various 18 mm image intensifier tubes.

== Design and Features ==
The Monie is a modular night vision device intended for military and professional use. It can be operated in a monocular configuration or adapted to a binocular format using optional bracket systems. The monocular configuration weighs approximately 270 grams, including a lithium AA battery, right-eye support bracket, and protective daytime cap. In binocular configuration, with additional brackets, the system weighs approximately 560 grams. The housing measures 81 mm in length, 69 mm in width, and 72 mm in height.

The device includes a manual gain control, a push-button infrared illuminator, and in-view indicators for IR activation and low battery status. It features an automatic high-light shut-off sensor and a magnetic stowage cut-off system to disable the device when flipped up. Power is supplied by a single 1.5 V AA lithium battery or a 3,6V AA lithium battery* with an estimated operating time of approximately 35/60* hours at 20 °C.

== Optical Characteristics ==
The standard optical configuration provides a 51° field of view. Optional attachments allow for a 9° field of view using a 3.8× zoom lens or a 72° field of view with a wide-angle bracket. The eyepiece provides 17 mm of eye relief, a dioptric adjustment range from –6 to +3, and a focus range from 20 cm to infinity. In binocular configuration, the interpupillary distance is fixed at 64 mm.

== Image Intensifier Compatibility ==
The Monie is compatible with 18 mm image intensifier tubes manufactured by Photonis. Supported tubes feature automatic brightness control (ABC) and external gain adjustment circuit (EGAC), with gating functionality available depending on the tube variant. All tubes use a glass input and output window (G2G construction). The following models are known to be compatible:

* Photonis XR5 (model code unspecified): Resolution of ≥72 line pairs per millimeter (lp/mm); available with green or white phosphor screens; estimated resolution of ~1.2 cycles/milliradian under optimal lighting conditions.
* Photonis XD4 (XX2050JM): Green phosphor; resolution of ≥60 lp/mm; estimated ~1.1 cycles/milliradian.
* Photonis SHD3 (XX1866GJ02): Green phosphor

== Usage and Characteristics ==
The Monie is designed for use in helmet-mounted, head-mounted, or handheld applications. It is intended to provide image intensification in low-light conditions while minimizing device size and weight. Its compact structure allows for integration with various mounting systems and optical accessories. The fixed interpupillary distance and symmetrical folding design facilitate universal supported use in both eyes.[[File:462546491_1254914218970763_8127769762351629935_n.jpg|alt=|thumb|Back Panel of Thales Monie]]

The Thales Angénieux LUCIE is a night vision device developed and designed by Thales in France in 1996. It is categorized as a LPNVG (Low Profile Night Vision Goggle) Bi-Ocular system and has been used since then by British, French and German armed forces.

== Technical Data ==
The LUCIE are usually equipped with Gen2+ Photonis XD4 or XR5 MX-10130 format image tubes, in rare cases a Gen3 is installed OEM. The eyepieces are by design in a fixed IPD setting due folded optical internals offering a wide but short eye-box for universal fit. Dioptric adjustment goes from -5 to +3 with a eye-relief around 17mm. The system is powered by a single AA battery 1,5V or 3,6V offering 60/100hrs operation time at 20°C. The goggles feature a morse signaling IR LED press button illuminator and can be switched continuously by the main power button. The housing features a auto-shutoff sensor turning the goggles automatically off after 30 seconds if the environmental lights are brighter than 10lux.

Mount

2024-04-14T20:28:09Z

Turkish Drone: /* Wilcox DPAM/GSGM */

A mount connects a night vision device or [[J-arm]] to a shroud, which is typically bolted to a helmet. Different mounts offer various methods of adjustment, such as tilt and height adjustment. Many mounts provide a mechanism to fold the device upwards into a "stowed" position, where the device is kept clear of the user's eyes. This often includes mechanisms that turn the night vision device off when it is stowed.

== Shroud ==

==== U.S. Shroud ====
The U.S. military introduced and popularized a modular system where a shroud is bolted to the front of the helmet, which then allows attaching a compatible mount with a simple locking mechanism. Russian ground force helmets such as the 6B47 and LShZ use a shroud that accepts the same mounts, with some visual differences.

==== Russian Aviation Shroud ====
This shroud is found on Russian aviator helmets, being used with the ONV-1 Skosok, GEO-NVG1, and GEO-ONV1 goggles. It is attached higher on the helmet than the US type.<ref>https://aviation.stackexchange.com/questions/47238/what-is-that-device-on-an-su-27-pilots-helmet</ref>

== Device Interfaces ==
Over the years, different standards have been developed for the mechanical interfaces between the mount and the night vision device.

What all these interfaces have in common is that they securely attach the device to the mount, while giving the user the ability to quickly attach and remove it.

=== Bayonet ===

==== Norotos Rhino ====
[[Image:Norotos Rhino.jpg|thumb|150px|right|Norotos Rhino and USGI J-arm]]

* Only supports pitch adjustment
* Patented force-to-overcome stowing mechanism

==== Norotos Rhino 2 ====
[[Image:RHNO II right side.png|thumb|150px|right|alt=Norotos Rhino 2|Norotos Rhino 2]]
* Improved version of the Norotos Rhino
* All features of Norotos Rhino, plus height adjustment
* Also produced with Dovetail

==== Norotos TATM ====

=== Dovetail ===

==== Wilcox L4 G24 ====
[[File:L4g24FDE.jpg|thumb|Wilcox L4 G24|150px]]

One of the most well known mounts, it features height, pitch and distance adjustment, while being extremely lightweight. The flip up/down function on this mount requires depressing a button, which makes sure the device stays deployed or stowed regardless of mechanical force.

==== Cadex Low Pro ====
Although similar in adjustability and format to the G24 mount this one is slightly bulkier while certain features differ. Most notably the Low Pro uses force-to-overcome to flip the mount into stowed position while requiring depressing a button to release and fold down. This allows for quickly getting a device out of the way but ensuring it wont accidentally fall back down. Compared to the G24 the adjustability of height covers a larger span, making it suitable for bridged monocular setups and binocular housings that are particularly tall.

=== Ball Detent ===
The ball detent mounting system was introduced to the U.S. military with the [[AN/AVS-6]] aviator binoculars, but later adopted by some ground forces as well. Today, even civilian search and rescue pilots rely on this system.

In contrast to the Dovetail or Bayonet system the mounts do not feature pitch adjustment, with compatible devices solving pitch adjustment internally.

Ball detent mounts include contacts for power supply, which are interrupted when the device is folded into the stowed position. Thus, many devices using ball detent mounts don't feature an internal battery compartment, relying on the power supply of the mount alone.

When stowed, devices using ball detent are much closer to and further back on the helmet than with most Bayonet or Dovetail mounts, making them optimal for their originally intended use inside of vehicles.

==== <big>ANVIS Issued HGU Aviator Mount</big> ====
[[File:HGU ANVIS Mount (Ground Spec Interchanged).jpg|thumb|150px|HGU ANVIS Mount (Ground Spec Interchanged)]]The original mount developed for the HGU helmet system and the [[AN/AVS-6]].

==== <big>Wilcox L4 G01</big> ====
[[File:Wilcox L4 G01-T.jpg|thumb|150px|Wilcox L4 G01-T]]The Wilcox L4 G01 is intended to be used with [[AN/AVS-9]] binoculars, but instead of aviation for ground use to provide a more rugged mounting system than issued aviation HGU mounts.

A L4 G02 was produced with very slight differences to fit a [[AN/PVS-23]]. Both mounts come with a VAS shroud adapter interface.

The mount is powered by either a CR123 battery operated or via an ANVIS or similar battery-pack.

Compared to the newer GSGM, the mount requires interchangeable accessories to switch power source, while the GSGM features a simple switch allowing to switch between the two sources.

The mount features height adjustment that can be released and fixated by the lever at the top.

==== <big>Wilcox DPAM/GSGM</big> ====
[[File:Wilcox GSGM.jpg|thumb|150px|Wilcox DPAM]]The Wilcox GSGM (Ground Spec Goggle Mount) and DPAM (Dual Power Aviators Mount) is the latest version of ball-detent mounting system next to the Wilcox AERONOX. The GSGM offers a more rugged and practical design compared to other ball-detent mounts and is compatible to most ball-detent interface NVGs. Originally it doesn’t come with any VAS shroud interface. Both Wilcox and Ops Core offer separate DPAM VAS insert adapters.

The mount is powered by either a CR123 battery or by ANVIS or similar battery packs. The power sources can be individually changed with a switch on the right side of the mount.

The mount features height adjustment that can be released and fixated by the lever at the top.

The mount is powered by either a CR123 battery or by ANVIS or similar battery packs. The power sources can be individually changed with a switch on the right side of the mount.

The mount features height adjustment that can be released and fixated by the lever at the top.

Mount

2024-04-07T13:20:23Z

Turkish Drone:

A mount connects a night vision device or [[J-arm|J arm]] to a shroud, which is typically bolted to a helmet. Different mounts offer various methods of adjustment, such as tilt and height adjustment. Many mounts provide a mechanism to fold the device upwards into a "stowed" position, where the device is kept clear of the user's eyes. This often includes mechanisms that turn the night vision device off when it is stowed.

== Shroud ==

==== US shroud ====
The U.S. military introduced and popularized a modular system where a shroud is bolted to the front of the helmet, which then allows attaching a compatible mount with a simple locking mechanism. Russian ground force helmets such as the 6B47 and LShZ use a shroud that accepts the same mounts, with some visual differences.

==== Russian Aviation shroud<ref>https://aviation.stackexchange.com/questions/47238/what-is-that-device-on-an-su-27-pilots-helmet</ref> ====
This shroud is found on Russian aviator helmets, being used with the ONV-1 Skosok, GEO-NVG1, and GEO-ONV1 goggles. It is attached higher on the helmet than the US type.

== Device Interfaces ==
Over the years, different standards have been developed for the mechanical interfaces between the mount and the night vision device.

What all these interfaces have in common is that they securely attach the device to the mount, while giving the user the ability to quickly attach and remove it.

=== Bayonet ===

==== Norotos Rhino ====

* Only supports pitch adjustment
* Patented force-to-overcome stowing mechanism
[[File:RHNO II right side.png|alt=Norotos Rhino 2|thumb|Norotos Rhino 2]]

==== Norotos Rhino 2 ====

* Improved version of the Norotos Rhino
* All features of Norotos Rhino, plus height adjustment
* Also produced with Dovetail

==== Norotos TATM ====

=== Dovetail ===

==== Wilcox L4 G24 ====
One of the most well known mounts, it features height, pitch and distance adjustment, while being extremely lightweight. The flip up/down function on this mount requires depressing a button, which makes sure the device stays deployed or stowed regardless of mechanical force.

==== Cadex Low Pro ====
Although similar in adjustability and format to the G24 mount this one is slightly bulkier while certain features differ. Most notably the Low Pro uses force-to-overcome to flip the mount into stowed position while requiring depressing a button to release and fold down. This allows for quickly getting a device out of the way but ensuring it wont accidentally fall back down. Compared to the G24 the adjustability of height covers a larger span, making it suitable for bridged monocular setups and binocular housings that are particularly tall.

=== Ball Detent ===
<big>Wilcox GSGM (Ground Spec Goggle Mount)</big>

- CR123 battery operated or cable power via ANVIS or similar battery-packs. The power sources can be individually changed with a switch on the right side of the mount.

- Heights Adjustment

The Wilcox GSGM is the latest version of ball-detent mounting system next to the Wilcox AERONOX. The GSGM offers a more rugged and practical design compared to other ball-detent mounts and is compatible to most ball-detent interface NVG‘s. Originally it doesn’t come with any VAS shroud interface and has to be purchased separately from Wilcox which is called DPAM VAS insert adapter, where also Ops Core produce as well DPAM VAS insert adapters for the GSGM.
[[File:Wilcox GSGM.jpg|thumb|Wilcox GSGM]]

<big>Wilcox L4 G01 (Ground Spec)</big>

- CR123 battery operated or via cable with ANVIS or similar battery-pack. With this older version of Wilcox its more kind of a modular system and ether works battery operated only or cable operated only by interchangeable accessories, where the GSGM is more practical in that sense with a simple electronic switch as mentioned.

- Heights Adjustment

The Wilcox L4 G01 is intentional meant to used with a ANVIS (F4949) Aviators Goggle but for ground use to provide a more rugged mounting system than issued HGU mounts, where also a L4 G02 was produced with very slight differences to fit a PVS-23 (F5050), a intentional ground spec ANVIS version NVG. Both mounts come originally with a VAS shroud adapter interface.

<big>ANVIS Issued HGU Aviator Mount (Ground Spec Interchangeable)</big>
[[File:HGU ANVIS Mount (Ground Spec Interchanged).jpg|thumb|HGU ANVIS Mount (Ground Spec Interchanged)]]

The ball detent mounting system was introduced to the U.S. military with the [[AN/AVS-6]] aviator binoculars, but later adopted by some ground forces as well. Today, even civilian search and rescue pilots rely on this system.

In contrast to the Dovetail or Bayonet system the mounts do not feature pitch adjustment, with compatible devices solving pitch adjustment internally.

Ball detent mounts include contacts for power supply, which are interrupted when the device is folded into the stowed position. Thus, many devices using ball detent mounts don't feature an internal battery compartment, relying on the power supply of the mount alone.

When stowed, devices using ball detent are much closer to and further back on the helmet than with most Bayonet or Dovetail mounts, making them optimal for their originally intended use inside of vehicles.

Many mounts provide a mechanism to fold the device upwards into a "stowed" position, where the device is kept clear of the user's eyes. This often includes mechanisms that turn the night vision device off when it is stowed.

== Shroud ==

==== US shroud ====
The U.S. military introduced and popularized a modular system where a shroud is bolted to the front of the helmet, which then allows attaching a compatible mount with a simple locking mechanism. Russian ground force helmets such as the 6B47 and LShZ use a shroud that accepts the same mounts, with some visual differences.

==== Russian Aviation shroud<ref>https://aviation.stackexchange.com/questions/47238/what-is-that-device-on-an-su-27-pilots-helmet</ref> ====
This shroud is found on Russian aviator helmets, being used with the ONV-1 Skosok, GEO-NVG1, and GEO-ONV1 goggles. It is attached higher on the helmet than the US type.

== Device Interfaces ==
Over the years, different standards have been developed for the mechanical interfaces between the mount and the night vision device.

What all these interfaces have in common is that they securely attach the device to the mount, while giving the user the ability to quickly attach and remove it.

==== Wilcox L4 G24 ====
One of the most well known mounts, it features height, pitch and distance adjustment, while being extremely lightweight. The flip up/down function on this mount requires depressing a button, which makes sure the device stays deployed or stowed regardless of mechanical force.

==== Cadex Low Pro ====
Although similar in adjustability and format to the G24 mount this one is slightly bulkier while certain features differ. Most notably the Low Pro uses force-to-overcome to flip the mount into stowed position while requiring depressing a button to release and fold down. This allows for quickly getting a device out of the way but ensuring it wont accidentally fall back down. Compared to the G24 the adjustability of height covers a larger span, making it suitable for bridged monocular setups and binocular housings that are particularly tall.

<big>Wilcox L4 G01 (Ground Spec)</big>

- CR123 battery operated or via cable with ANVIS or similar battery-pack. With this older version of Wilcox its more kind of a modular system and ether works battery operated only or cable operated only by interchangeable accessories, where the GSGM is more practical in that sense with a simple electronic switch as mentioned.

- Heights Adjustment

The Wilcox L4 G01 is intentional meant to used with a ANVIS (F4949) Aviators Goggle but for ground use, where also a L4 G02 was produced with very slight differences to fit a PVS-23 (F5050), a intentional ground spec ANVIS version NVG. Both mounts come originally with a VAS shroud adapter interface.

The ball detent mounting system was introduced to the U.S. military with the [[AN/AVS-6]] aviator binoculars, but later adopted by some ground forces as well. Today, even civilian search and rescue pilots rely on this system.

In contrast to the Dovetail or Bayonet system the mounts do not feature pitch adjustment, with compatible devices solving pitch adjustment internally.

Ball detent mounts include contacts for power supply, which are interrupted when the device is folded into the stowed position. Thus, many devices using ball detent mounts don't feature an internal battery compartment, relying on the power supply of the mount alone.

When stowed, devices using ball detent are much closer to and further back on the helmet than with most Bayonet or Dovetail mounts, making them optimal for their originally intended use inside of vehicles.

The AN/AVS-9 the [[Joint Electronics Type Designation System (JETDS)|JETDS]] designation for the F4949 binocular night vision device developed by [[Elbit Systems Of America|Elbit Systems of America]] for aviators in the [[United States of America|U.S.]] military.

== Overview ==
The housing is compatible with [[MX-10160]] format image intensifier tubes.

The AN/AVS-9 uses the ball detent mounting system. It features no onboard power supply or on/off switch, and instead relies on the connected mount to supply the power through the contacts under the "ball" of the mount.

The housing features adjustible interpupillary distance, distance from the eye, and pitch.

Except for one difference, the ocular lens assemblies are almost identical and in fact compatible with [[AN/PVS-14]] ocular assemblies. The only difference is an absence of the threading for eyecups, sacrificial lenses or filters.

In contrast, the objective lenses have a different threading than the AN/PVS-14 counterparts.

Housings with this combination of lens threadings as well as the objective lenses are usually referred to as ''ANVIS-threaded''. Other ANVIS-threaded housings include the AN/AVS-6, AN/PVS-23 and the [[Fenn NG700D]], for example.
