Selective hunting of wild boar
Selective hunting is a discipline that requires great precision, responsibility, and in-depth knowledge of the natural environment and the species being hunted. In this context, the evolution of hunting technologies has led to the introduction of advanced tools capable of significantly improving the effectiveness and safety of operations. Among these, thermal optics have become one of the most innovative and appreciated tools by enthusiasts of selective hunting.
The Containment
Wild boar containment is a hunting activity of growing importance in many areas, due to the high presence of this species in an increasing number of environments. The adoption of advanced technologies has become essential to improve the effectiveness and safety of hunting outings. Among the most promising innovations in the field of thermal optics for selective wild boar hunting is the new Stellar 3.0.
This thermal optic stands out for its exceptional image quality, ease of use, and cutting-edge technical features. Thanks to its ability to detect temperature differences, the Stellar 3.0 makes it possible to spot wild boars even in challenging environmental conditions. Its high thermal sensitivity and the extremely high resolution of the thermal sensor ensure a detailed view of the animals, allowing the selection controller to quickly locate the herd and identify the individual specimen to be contained
The new Stellar 3.0
We tested the new STELLAR 3.0 during a wild boar containment outing: the new HIKMICRO thermal optic, in its SX60L 3.0 model, proved to be outstanding in terms of visibility and aiming experience.

< allows for extremely high thermal contrast to ensure detailed perception of the surrounding environment. This parameter is a key indicator for evaluating the new STELLAR 3.0’s ability to detect even the smallest temperature differences, turning them into a clear and well-defined image

The next-generation, high-performance thermal sensor with a resolution of 1280×1024 is designed for optimal performance even in the most difficult environmental conditions and at long distances. Thanks to its advanced technology, the thermal sensor of the STELLAR 3.0 can detect the smallest temperature differences between the animal and its surroundings, providing sharper and more detailed images. The high-definition OLED screen, with a resolution of 2560×2560, delivers images with high contrast and vivid colors, allowing extremely precise visualization of details.

The integrated laser rangefinder provides fast and accurate measurements, enabling the hunter to correctly assess the distance from the animal. Accurate distance measurement thus becomes essential for safe, informed, and ethical selective hunting.
