The SENTINEL™ Binocular Night Vision System or BNVS is a unique Dual Tube Night Vision system, that was developed as an alternate to the ANVIS-6/ANVIS-9 Goggles. Responding directly to the ground deployment of ANVIS Aviation Goggles, and their subsequent breakage due to not being rugged enough for that environment, the AI/SENTINEL provides the operator with a host of useful features not found in other goggle systems. The SENTINEL™ program was developed by Adams Industries as a way to outfit ground forces with an up-armored version of their typical ANVIS goggles. Special Operations Forces have long used ANVIS goggles on the ground because of the superior performance of the optics and tubes compared to conventional systems, but aviation goggles were never designed to be deployed outside the protection of a cockpit and their more fragile nature has been the Achilles Heel to SOF units.
The SENTINEL™ program began as a way to utilize the desired features operators required, in a rugged package that makes you wonder why it wasn't considered before. Features like a light-weight yet highly rugged machined composite housing, reinforced by an aluminum front and rear bridge plate. In addition, the SENTINEL™ meets MILSPEC standards for submersion to 66′ which is crucial to anyone who has ever tried to use ANVIS goggles in the rain or snow.
Some of the working features of the ANVIS systems that user's liked were improved, like the interpupillary adjustments that are on a worm drive which eliminates the characteristic creaking and rattling noises found in the aviation goggles.
