I am fairly confident in saying they are not using the same sensor as the Hogster as the Burris thermals have a very unusual resolution.
Since there is so little information available, I asked a person in the thermal industry as I was curious what Burris was bringing to market as well. This is what I was told, and again this is based on simply looking at the Burris marketing as there has been little else presented.
From the specs and images it looks like Burris may be using thermals from Wuhan Guide Infrared. Wuhan Guide produces 17um VOx sensors themselves. The signal-to-noise ratio and the sensitivity was inferior to other sensors on the market when tested back in 2017. In addition, the image was noisy and not balanced. The sight was heavy and pretty bulky for an AR-15. If Burris adopted this model "as it was", without serious improvements, then it is hard to believe this product can be competitive with modern models in the same price niche.
Again, this is all speculation at this time. On some other forums, people have been asking Burris questions and it sounds like they are getting marketing speak. Hopefully, it isn't a rebranded 2017 model scope that wasn't very good even back then. Time will tell.
