Steiner Optics Redefines Tactical Aiming with the ATLAS
Greeley, CO – December 8, 2025 – Steiner Optics, a global leader in precision optics for military, law enforcement, and outdoor enthusiasts, proudly announces the launch and immediate availability of the ATLAS (Advanced Tactical Laser Aiming System). Engineered as a next-generation solution for dynamic operational environments, the ATLAS sets a new standard for versatility, performance, and ergonomic design in rifle-mounted aiming systems.
The ATLAS is now available to military units, law enforcement agencies, professional security teams, and the consumer market. It is designed from the ground up to provide superior target engagement capability across all distances, from close-quarters battle (CQB) to extended-range precision.
The Five-Emitter Advantage
The core of the ATLAS’s groundbreaking performance is its five-emitter architecture. This system seamlessly integrates multiple functions that previously required separate, bulkier devices, offering a complete aiming and illumination package in a single, compact unit. The five emitters include:
-
Visible Laser Pointer: For rapid, daylight aiming and signaling.
-
Near-Infrared (NIR) Laser Pointer: For covert aiming under night vision devices (NODs).
-
Long-Range VCSEL Illuminator: A powerful, narrow-beam illuminator (2°–3° divergence) with minimum speckle for identifying targets at great distances.
-
Mid-Range NIR LED Illuminator: A wider beam (10°–15° divergence) for balanced situational awareness in medium-range environments.
-
Short-Range NIR LED Illuminator: An ultra-wide beam (40°–50° divergence) for unparalleled illumination during CQB operations.
A key feature for simplifying the operational workflow is the Single Adjuster Zeroing. All aiming lasers and the long-range VCSEL illuminator are factory co-aligned, allowing operators to zero all critical emitters using just a single set of windage and elevation adjusters. This ensures fast, reliable zeroing and consistent co-alignment retention, saving critical time in the field.
Ergonomics Built for Battle
Steiner has paid meticulous attention to user interface and weapon integration. The ATLAS boasts best-in-class ergonomics, including an ultra-low-profile integrated mount that minimizes the unit’s height above the rail. This low footprint ensures seamless compatibility and reduced visual obstruction when running the ATLAS with standard Low Power Variable Optics (LPVOs).
All controls are fully ambidextrous and designed for intuitive, decisive operation—even while wearing gloves. The unit features a five-position mode switch and three large, tactile activation buttons for fire, power selection, and illuminator selection. Operators can quickly adapt to mission requirements using three power output settings—high, medium, and low—which adjust the intensity of the illumination and laser beams.
Constructed from lightweight, yet rugged, magnesium alloy, the ATLAS is built to withstand the harshest environmental conditions while maintaining a compact form factor, weighing in at less than 200g (7oz).
The Steiner ATLAS is a leap forward in eOptics, delivering unmatched versatility and performance that solidifies Steiner’s commitment to providing trusted optics for life’s defining moments. The ATLAS has an MSRP starting at $4,024.99.
