FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
AKASO Unveils Sight-300: Ultra-Light, Full-Colour Night Vision Revolutionises Nighttime Adventures
August 19, 2025 – AKASO, a leader in outdoor and imaging technology, introduces the Sight-300, an ultra-light digital monocular that delivers clear, true-to-life colour night vision in conditions as dark as starlight. Designed specifically for wildlife enthusiasts, night hikers, and outdoor adventurers, the Sight-300 combines innovative imaging technology with unmatched portability and user-friendly design, offering a dramatically improved nighttime viewing experience.
Next-Level Colour Night Vision Without IR Illumination
Unlike traditional night vision that often relies on bulky infrared illuminators, AKASO’s Sight-300 leverages cutting-edge optical technology and an advanced image-processing engine to deliver vibrant colour visuals at incredibly low-light levels, as dim as 0.001 lux, comparable to mere starlight. This means users can view and capture clear, richly detailed images even on moonless nights without giving away their position with IR illumination. This stealthy capability makes Sight-300 perfect for wildlife watching, back-country camping, nocturnal exploration, and activities where maintaining darkness is essential.
Advanced Image Processing Delivers Crystal-Clear Scenes
At the heart of the Sight-300 is its second-generation, quad-core AI-ISP engine. This powerful image processor cleans every frame in real-time, dramatically cutting visual noise, eliminating motion blur, and restoring up to 99% colour accuracy. Whether you’re observing wildlife in dense forests or engaging in dynamic tactical games, you’ll see vibrant, sharp visuals and not the grainy green-tinted views associated with older night vision devices.
High-End Optics and High-Resolution Recording
The Sight-300 employs an oversized 1/1.79-inch CMOS sensor combined with an industry-leading F/1.0 lens to maximize low-light capture. This sophisticated optical system gathers abundant light, enabling clear, detailed, and vivid night imagery without supplemental lighting. Additionally, the monocular records stunning footage at resolutions up to 4K at 30 fps during daylight and crisp 2K at 60 fps after dark, complete with 8× digital zoom capability. Users can effortlessly capture memorable moments with quality footage suitable for social sharing or professional documentation.
Ultra-Light and Helmet-Compatible Design
Weighing just 260 grams the monocular is engineered for ultimate portability and comfort. Its modular, helmet-ready housing comes with included brackets and mounting rails, allowing adventurers to easily attach it to helmets, tripods, or handhold it comfortably throughout prolonged nighttime sessions. The ergonomic and lightweight design eliminates neck strain, enhancing user comfort and mobility for extended nocturnal activities.
Personalised and Versatile User Experience
Designed to meet the needs of diverse nighttime explorers, the Sight-300 offers dual scene modes: “Observation Mode” for maximum image clarity during stationary viewing, and “Action Mode” to deliver stable, blur-free visuals during movement. A human-centric 60-degree field-of-view at the eyepiece maintains high situational awareness, while a wide 120-degree lens-capture ensures comprehensive coverage of your surroundings. Further enhancing usability, the monocular is IP-65 water and dust resistant, powered by a hot-swappable 3,250 mAh battery, and features Wi-Fi connectivity for seamless live-viewing and remote operation via a smartphone app.
Availability and Shipping
AKASO is set to launch the Sight-300 via Kickstarter for early backers (price TBA), with the first backer shipments scheduled for November 2025.
