Military camouflage data

Figures 8-9 show sample military camouflage data under many of the above backgrounds and scenarios, as labeled. These were taken with an IR camera operating in the 3 to 5 pm region, and a standard Visible-region digital camera (for the Visible analogs). TTie device shown exhibited a AR (specular reflectance) at 5 pm of about 50%. What is to be noted is the matching of the device to the surround background (on the periphery of each photo). It can be seen that this is truly excellent.
