Multi-scale camouflage is a type of military camouflage combining patterns at two or more scales, often (though not necessarily) with a digital camouflage pattern created with computer assistance. The function is to provide camouflage over a range of distances, or equivalently over a range of scales (scale-invariant camouflage), in the manner ...
In 2008, research and development into a new camouflage pattern began with five patterns being analyzed, consisting of fractal, desert, woodland, urban and universal. [2] Later on, eight patterns were being studied for potential adoption, which includes universal, multicamo for use in more than one environment and the others are terrain-based ...
Tactical Assault Camouflage, also called TACAM, is a 2004 camouflage pattern exclusively used by the National Counterterrorism Center of the United States. [ 1 ] The pattern was designed as an experiment to show the ability of fractal patterns, breaking up a soldier's outline and symmetry.
Netherlands Fractal Pattern Green (NFP-Green) Flecktarn: 2019 NFP Green, Standard issued camouflage since 2019 in the Royal Netherlands Army. [50] [51] This camouflage is designed to be used in green areas, woods, and urban areas in Europe. Three additional colour variations are in use and are shown below. An arctic version of the NFP is being ...
MARPAT (short for Marine pattern) [3] is a multi-scale camouflage pattern in use with the United States Marine Corps, designed in 2001 and introduced from late 2002 to early 2005 with the Marine Corps Combat Utility Uniform (MCCUU), which replaced the Camouflage Utility Uniform. Its design and concept are based on the Canadian CADPAT pattern ...
Fractal art developed from the mid-1980s onwards. [2] It is a genre of computer art and digital art which are part of new media art. The mathematical beauty of fractals lies at the intersection of generative art and computer art. They combine to produce a type of abstract art. Fractal art (especially in the western world) is rarely drawn or ...
This problem has been solved with pixellated shapes, often designed digitally, that provide a fractal-like range of patch sizes, enabling them to be effectively disruptive both at close range and at a distance. The first genuinely digital camouflage pattern was the Canadian CADPAT, soon followed by the American MARPAT. A pixellated appearance ...
Proposed in 1931 and introduced in 1932, the four-colour camouflage patterns incorporated "splinters" on top of the 1918 colour pattern. The pattern included ochre , rust and brown overlaid on a green foundation, with sharp corners between coloured patches.
