Viewing with both eyes is more relaxed for long watches. Most digital night vision binoculars use a single sensor and one screen seen through two eyepieces, so the gain is comfort rather than depth. Goggles such as the Nightfox Swift 2 and Firefield Hexcore add a head mount for hands-free use, while magnified binoculars from ATN, Rexing and Bresser are made to be held or set on a tripod.
