  • FIG. 2 is an example of a design layer of a composite camouflage pattern.
  • FIG. 3. is an example of a design layer of a composite camouflage pattern.
  • FIG. 4 is an example of a design layer of a composite camouflage pattern with fading.
  • FIG. 5 is an example of a design layer of a composite camouflage pattern with the same pixelated pattern as FIG. 4 and with different fading from that of FIG. 4.
  • FIG. 6 is an example of a design layer of a composite camouflage pattern with fading.
  • FIG. 7 is an example of a design layer of a composite camouflage pattern with the same pixelated pattern as FIG. 6 and with different fading from that of FIG. 6.
  • Camouflage techniques can be used for concealing the presence of the human form and other devices from visual detection in a variety of environments.
  • Camouflage patterns may be applied to a variety of substrates such as different fabrics and materials that may be worn by a user or applied as a covering to various articles.
  • a Camouflage pattern used on clothing or vehicles and equipment can be designed for specific situations such as for military, hunting, fashion, and recreational purposes. Many of the camouflage patterns designed for hunting are meant to blend into a specific background environment with patterns that resemble the appearance of the available cover, i.e., woodland and grassland patterns.
  • camouflage patterns are designed to disrupt the outline of a human form or an object and visually break up the defining features of an image. It would be advantageous to create a camouflage pattern, such as a composite camouflage, that would be generally effective for use in many environments and situations by both blending with the background environment as well as breaking up the outline of the user or object.
  • FIG. 1 shows one embodiment of a composite camouflage pattern designed to blend into a wide variety of background environments and disrupt the outline of a human form or other subject, object or structure.
  • the composite camouflage pattern may be created using a camouflage system comprising multiple design layers that are combined to give the desired composite camouflage pattern.
  • the design layers of the composite camouflage may be separate layers that are overlaid on a fabric, structure, subject or object to produce the composite camouflage pattern.
  • templates or patterns for each of the design layers may be designed and each template successively affixed to a surface until the design layers are all combined on a desired substrate or medium.
  • the design layers may also be digitally produced and then combined digitally to give the desired camouflage pattern which may be reproduced with an output device like a printer and applied to a desired surface or substrate.
  • the composite camouflage pattern may be affixed to fabric used in clothing for military, hunting, and recreational uses.
  • the composite camouflage pattern may be affixed to all or part of motor vehicles, field equipment, accessories, soft goods, and other materials or surfaces.
  • the composite camouflage pattern may be affixed, integrated, weaved, stamped or molded onto or into natural fabric, synthetic fabric, plastic, metal, rubber, glass, carbon fiber, gelatin, wood or combinations thereof.
  • the design layers of the various embodiments of the composite camouflage pattern designed according to the camouflage system disclosed herein may include the various pixelated patterns as shown in FIG. 1 , or other patterns and shapes as desired. With reference to FIGS.
  • the design layers of the composite camouflage may include a pixelated pattern of a single color.
  • a single color pattern may comprise a monochromatic pattern that may include fading of various tints and shades of the monochromatic color.
  • the individual design layers may include pixelated patterns and design elements along with alphanumeric characters.
  • the design layers of the composite camouflage may also include areas of fading where different shades of the color create darker and lighter regions within the design layer pattern. With specific reference to FIGS. 4 and 5, the faded areas may be arbitrarily placed throughout the design layer producing light and dark shaded areas in the pattern.
  • different design layers may be combined to form complementary effects to enhance the overall function of the composite camouflage pattern.
  • the design layers shown by FIG. 4 and FIG. 5 may represent the same or similar pixelated pattern with contrasting fading patterns.
  • the design layer in FIG. 4 has light shading
  • the design layer of FIG. 5 may include areas of dark shading.
  • the resulting composite camouflage pattern may appear three-dimensional and include an apparent depth of texture.
  • the design layers of FIG. 4 and FIG. 5 may different monochromatic colors, or they may be different shades of the same monochromatic color.
  • the design layer in FIG. 4 might be a green pixelated pattern with fading and the design layer in FIG. 5 may be a brown pattern with fading.
  • the design layers of a composite camouflage as represented in FIG. 4 and in FIG. 5 may include the same monochromatic color but FIG. 4 may have a different range of shading and tinting than that of the shading and tinting of FIG. 5.
  • the design layers may have horizontal or vertical fading patterns as shown by the design layers of FIG. 6 and FIG. 7.
  • the pattern or designs used by the design layers of the composite camouflage may be the same or they may be different.
  • the design layer shown by FIG. 6 may comprise the same pixelated pattern as the design layer in FIG. 7.
  • the design layers shown in FIG. 6 and FIG. 7 have contrasting fading patterns with FIG. 6 including horizontal dark shading in the center and FIG. 7 comprising horizontal dark shading at the edges.
  • the design layers shown in FIG. 6 and FIG. 7 may each include a different monochromatic color or they may both include the same monochromatic color, but with different shading and tinting.
  • three or more design layers may be combined to form a composite camouflage pattern.
  • the design layers shown in FIG. 4 and FIG. 5 may be combined with another design layer.
  • a design layer such as the design layer shown in FIG. 6 may be configured to overlap or fill in areas of the composite camouflage pattern that may or may not be filled in by other design layers.
  • Successive design layers may be added to the composite camouflage pattern until a portion of the pattern or all the areas of the pattern are filled or until the desired effect is reached.
  • the patterns and colors of the different design layers may overlap when combined, thereby giving additional colors and shading to the composite camouflage.
  • the six design layers shown in FIGS. 2-7 may be combined to produce a composite camouflage pattern that may be used conceal the human form and other equipment and accessories. More particularly, as each design layer shown by FIGS. 2-7 is combined, many of the unfilled areas of the composite camouflage pattern are filled until a desired composite camouflage pattern is complete. In one such embodiment, when a desired composite camouflage is created, such as the composite camouflage pattern of FIG. 1 , the pattern may be reproduced or expanded to cover a desired substrate.
  • the composite camouflage pattern may be affixed to a desired substrate one design layer at a time until the desired pattern is produced.
  • the design layers or the complete composite camouflage pattern may be silk screened on to large pieces of natural or synthetic fabrics which can then be used to fashion garments and clothing of various designs and sizes for hunting, military, recreational and other tactical uses.
  • the composite camouflage pattern may be affixed by the printing, painting, or dyeing of sheets or panels of vinyl or plastic which may then be applied to a desired surface such as a vehicle, window, building, banner, and other surfaces.
  • the composite camouflage pattern may be applied directly to a desired surface by painting, stamping, or other appropriate means.
