A camouflage object including a body having an area and a camouflage pattern placed in the area. The camouflage pattern is formed by at least two first bands extending in the same first running direction across the area and having a first length, where the at least two first bands include a first perceptible characteristic and at least one second band extending in a second running direction across the area and having a second length, where the at least one second band includes a second perceptible characteristic. The at least one second band at least partially overlaps the at least two first bands. A plurality of zones is formed by the intersection of the at least two first bands and the at least one second band and have a pattern formed by the combination of the first perceptible characteristic and the second perceptible characteristic.

The present invention relates to display systems that use materials made from various arrangements of lenses and other optical materials. Careful design and use of these materials can be used to achieve display systems with many desirable visual effects having applicability in image and video displays, virtual reality, immersive environments, as well as in architecture, art, entertainment, and interactive systems.

The present invention provides an infrared selective emitter that can selectively emit infrared energy in a desired wavelength band, can be easily applied to a curved surface due to its flexible properties, and can protect the formed surface structure of the infrared selective emitter from external stimuli such as friction, thereby improving wear resistance and maximizing the function of infrared selective emission.

A multifunctional, versatile, camouflage device including a puck including a top, a bottom, and a plurality of sides, a securing device on the bottom configured to secure the puck to an object, one or more of the plurality of sides including a threaded opening configured to secure a device to the puck, and wherein a plurality of devices coupled to the puck create a camouflage area proximate a user.

A method for producing a layer of a device for electromagnetic radiation absorption, includes: providing a ply of powder material in the layer to be produced of the device; providing a predefined concentration distribution of particles for electromagnetic radiation absorption in the layer; providing a first binder and a second binder for the powder materials, wherein the first binder includes particles for the absorption of electromagnetic radiation, wherein the second binder includes a lower concentration of identical and/or different particles than the first binder; determining a mixing ratio between the first binder and the second binder for every position in the layer; selecting a position of the layer; mixing the first and second binder according to the mixing ratio for the selected position; wetting the powder material at the selected position using the mixed first and second binders; and repeating selecting, mixing, and wetting to produce the layer.

Systems according to the present disclosure provide one or more surfaces that function as power transferring surfaces for which at least a portion of the surface includes or is composed of “fractal cells” placed sufficiently closed close together to one another so that a surface (plasmonic) wave causes near replication of current present in one fractal cell in an adjacent fractal cell. A fractal of such a fractal cell can be of any suitable fractal shape and may have two or more iterations. The fractal cells may lie on a flat or curved sheet or layer and be composed in layers for wide bandwidth or multibandwidth transmission.
