ABSTRACT:
The present invention is an improved camouflage system for visually concealing people and objects from animals wherein the selection of colors to be used depends on the extent of the animal's color vision and the reflectivity of the colors used in a neutral value scale. In one form of the invention, the system includes a base color carrier means of a base color hue having a first reflectivity and adapted for application to people or objects. The system further includes at least three contrast color carrier means of different contrast color hues adapted for application to people or objects, wherein the contrast color hues each have a reflectivity which is substantially different from the reflectivity of the base color hue and the other contrast color hues. In one embodiment of the invention, at least one of the base color hue and the contrast color hues is other than brown, black and white. In another embodiment of the invention, at least one of the base color hue or the contrast color hues is a hue which is highly visible to humans but not as perceptible to the animal.
