Camouflage Design vs. Signature Prediction •   Need for Computing Optimal Camouflage Designs –  Ability to evaluate a given design (i.e. you have signature, sensor codes), does not equate to ability to generate a worthwhile design. •   Manual trial and error evaluation is intractable •   Particularly when the object appearance is highly variable and sensitive to conditions •   Computational Camouflage Optimization Allows Rapid Gauging of Trade-offs –  Quantify performance vs. cost, scheme complexity –  Quantify performance vs. breadth of scenarios –  Quantify performance vs. what-if coating technologies Next Page To PMO Page
