I saw something like this in National Geographic as well, only they were using it for urban warfare camouflage, that is you blend in with the background like a chamaeleon.

Edit, well they want to use for that, technology not ready yet.

YES I AM BACK...much like Eminem but without the catchy melody...

I am surprised that you people remember me it has been a summer and semester since I last posted on this board...I have had a lot of work to do and as I type this I am in class learning how to code in Assembly language...YAY

All in all...it's good to be back :D Tongue
