Model Study of Instant Vehicular Camouflage

Abstract

A feasibility study to determine what materials and geometric systems would be required for fabrication of a camouflage system that would instantaneously cover a military vehicle in order to disrupt its characteristic shape or outline. The program involved intensive research and field trips in which the state-of-the-art of modern camouflage was studied; conception of numerous camouflage systems from the research and group synetics process; production of prescribed models and diagrams; and analysis of systems and conclusions as to their feasibility.
