InfiRay Mate MAH50

• 640x512 thermal sensor: The high-resolution 12.00 μm sensor with 25.00 mK NETD resolves fine temperature differences, helping the clip-on pick out animals, edges and terrain detail more clearly in damp air, mixed backgrounds and low-contrast conditions.
• True 1x clip-on format: With 1.00 x optical magnification, the MAH50 is built to sit in front of a daytime riflescope without changing the familiar sight picture, so it preserves the handling and aiming habits of a conventional optic.
• 50 mm objective lens: The larger front lens supports a long 2597.00 m detection range and gives the device the reach needed for open-ground observation while still keeping enough image detail for practical hunting use.
• Magnesium housing: The magnesium body keeps weight to 530.00 g while adding field durability, which matters on rifles that are carried for long periods and exposed to recoil, weather and rough handling.
• 11.00-hour battery life with WiFi and recording: Long runtime, plus photo, video and WiFi functions, makes the unit suitable for extended outings where observation, documentation and wireless control all matter without frequent battery changes.

About the InfiRay Mate Series

The InfiRay Mate Series was introduced by InfiRay Outdoor on September 16, 2022 as a family of thermal imaging attachments built for hunting applications. The series is designed to mount in front of daytime riflescopes, giving shooters thermal capability while keeping the familiar reticle, eye relief and shooting position of their existing optic. That approach makes the Mate line especially relevant to users who want a thermal front attachment rather than a dedicated thermal riflescope.

Magnesium-alloy housings are a defining part of the series design, balancing low weight with the rigidity needed for field use on hunting rifles. The line includes the MAL25, MAL38 and MAH50, while the MAH50R adds an integrated laser rangefinder and ballistic calculation for users who need ranging support in the same platform. The original Mate models also support both attachment use and monocular viewing, which broadens their role beyond the rifle. Across the series, the emphasis is on practical thermal observation, compatibility with daytime optics and a compact front-attachment format that fits modern hunting optics setups.

About the InfiRay Mate MAH50

The InfiRay Mate MAH50 is the longest-reaching standard model in the Mate family, combining a 50.00 mm objective lens with a 640x512 VOx uncooled thermal sensor for users who need more detection capability in open terrain. As a 1.00 x thermal clip-on, it is intended to work ahead of a daytime riflescope rather than replace it, which is a practical advantage for hunters who already trust their day optic's reticle, eye relief and controls. The result is a thermal imaging setup that feels familiar behind the rifle while adding heat-based target detection for darkness, fog and visually cluttered ground.

The sensor's 12.00 μm pixel pitch, 25.00 mK NETD and 50.00 Hz refresh rate matter in real use because they help the image stay cleaner and more readable when temperature contrast is weak or when animals are moving across mixed backgrounds. The OLED display with 1024×768 resolution gives the user a sharp viewing image inside a compact housing, while the stated 2597.00 m detection range gives the MAH50 the reach expected from a larger-lens thermal attachment. Recording functions, video output and WiFi connectivity add flexibility for documenting observations or linking the device with external viewing and control options.

Mechanically, the MAH50 is built around a magnesium body that keeps the unit to 146.00 mm in length and 530.00 g in weight, which is important on a front-mounted thermal where excess bulk can upset rifle balance. Waterproof, fogproof and shockproof construction supports use in poor weather, and the 11.00-hour battery life suits longer sessions in the field without making power management the main concern.

About IRay

IRay Technology Co., Ltd. develops and manufactures infrared detectors, thermal camera cores and modules, and thermal imaging cameras. Within the outdoor segment, the company focuses on thermal and digital optoelectronics for hunting and observation, with product families that include thermal riflescopes, thermal and night-vision monoculars and binoculars, and thermal imaging attachments. In its own technology profile, IRay highlights IC design, MEMS sensors and Matrix III image algorithms among its core technologies, which is directly relevant to products such as thermal clip-ons where detector performance and image processing shape practical image quality.

In the hunting optics market, IRay's lineup spans several distinct thermal families, including Mate and Clip C attachments, Clip NV and Tube NV night-vision riflescopes, and thermal riflescope lines such as Holo, Rico, Tube, Geni and Hybrid. That breadth shows a manufacturer with a strong focus on thermal imaging and related sighting systems rather than a general optics brand with only a small thermal offering.
