Designed as a single, factory integrated system, the Boson SX8 - CZ 15–75 delivers optimized optical and electronic performance backed by a single source warranty. Advanced lens and control electronics maintain focus throughout the zoom range, enable real time thermal gradient compensation, and support flexible, user defined command syntax with expansion capability for additional features. By reducing development and supply risk while accelerating time to market, the Boson SX8 - CZ 15–75 is ideal for integrators developing uncrewed systems, counter UAS solutions, perimeter surveillance, light armored vehicle situational awareness and targeting, and soldier sighting systems.
