ABSTRACT:
A camouflage device uses fiber optic cables to conceal an object by routing light around the object using the fiber optic cables. Lenses are used to focus light into and transmit light coming from each end of the fiber optic cables. Each lens is connected to one end of a conical section with the other end connected to one end of a fiber optic cable, while at the other end of the fiber optic cable is another attached conical section and lens. Each lens configuration having a pair of lens and conical sections connected by a fiber optic cable is positioned around the object to be concealed in such a way that any light entering a lens is transmitted around the object to be concealed by the fiber optic cable attached to the lens and then out the other lens of the lens configuration.
