The Binocular Photon Machine

Astronomers spend a lot of time and money getting telescopes with bigger apertures to try to collect more photons. The BIPH (Binocular Photon Machine) is a device which makes better use of the photons you do get, multiplying the signal 50,000 times, effectively tripling your aperture. It turns small scopes into giant ones and giant ones into...

What is it?

Generation 3 Military Technology light amplification device designed for use with telescopes.

Amplification: 50,000x

Aperture Gain: Up to 3x

BIPH n ('biff)
  1. BINOCULAR PHOTON MACHINE {Patent-Pending}
    powered by a Gen 3 Ga Thin Filmed hand selected and quality-tested tube.
  2. System that allows observers to use two eyes in any telescope rendering real time views with additional light amplification of as much as 50,000 compared to conventional eyepieces.
  3. Public outreach system that offers instant views to the general public without the need for making focus or inter-pupillary adjustments.
  4. Gen 3 binocular that becomes a hand held, dual eye ultra-widefield viewing device when adding a camera lens and shows billowing detail in objects like the Pelican and North American Nebulae, bifurcation in M27, etc.
  5. BIPH allows small scopes or camera lenses used visually to show structure that eludes detection even in largest scopes not using BIPH.

Pelican Case

Every unit comes in a high quality Pelican® Case (model 1450).

Unbreakable, watertight, airtight, dust-proof, chemical resistant and corrosion proof.

Made of Ultra High Impact structural copolymer that makes it extremely strong and durable. 1/4" (6.4 mm) neoprene o-ring and ABS latches seal perfectly and includes an automatic purge valve for quick equalization after changes in atmospheric pressure.

This case is NATO codified and tested to MIL C-4150J (Military Standard), IP-67 (Ingress Protection) and ATA (Air Transportation Association).
