digital camouflage

in 2004 the us armed forces switched to new camouflage patterns designed according by computers using fractal-based algorithms that create large and small-scale textures using only four colors of dye. these have a 40% lower chance of being detected from 200 meters away that traditional olive drab. guy cramer “designed” these patterns for hyperstealth, they also explain in detail the advantages of digital vs. analog camo – but hurry! each of the 102 patterns on the website is up for exclusive licensing (except for the 100 confidential 3rd generation patterns available only to US and Canadian military command.)
