As camouflage equipment, camouflage net which covers or obstruct the enemy reconnaissance and attack, have the compatibility such as optics, infrared, radar wave band performance. To improve the adaptive between the camouflage net with background in infrared wavelengths, the heat shield and heat integration requirements on the surface of the camouflage net was analyzed. The condition that satisfied the heat shield was when the average thermal infrared transmittance was less than 25.38% on camouflage screen surface. Studies have shown that camouflage nets and the background field fused together when infrared radiation temperature difference control is within the scope of ± 4K . Experiment on temperature contrast was tested in situ background, thermal camouflage spots and camouflage net with sponge material, the infrared heat maps was recorded in the period of experiment through the thermal imager. Results showed that the thermal inertia of camouflage net was markedly lower than the background and the exposed signs were obvious. It was difficult to reach camouflage thermal infrared fusion requirements by relying on camouflage spot emissivity, but sponge which mix with polymer resin can reduce target significance in the context of mottled and realize the fusion effect.
Camouflage effectiveness measurement as an important part of the camouflage technology, which testing and measuring the camouflage effect of the target and the performance of the camouflage equipment according to the tactical and technical requirements. The camouflage effectiveness measurement of current optical band is mainly aimed at the static target,which could not objectively reflect the dynamic camouflage effect of the moving target. This paper synthetical used technology of dynamic object detection and camouflage effect detection, the digital camouflage of the moving object as the research object, the adaptive background update algorithm of Surendra was improved, a method of optical camouflage effect detection using Lab-color space in the detection of moving-object was presented. The binary image of moving object is extracted by this measurement technology, in the sequence diagram, the characteristic parameters such as the degree of dispersion, eccentricity, complexity and moment invariants are constructed to construct the feature vector space. The Euclidean distance of moving target which through digital camouflage was calculated, the results show that the average Euclidean distance of 375 frames was 189.45, which indicated that the degree of dispersion, eccentricity, complexity and moment invariants of the digital camouflage graphics has a great difference with the moving target which not spray digital camouflage. The measurement results showed that the camouflage effect was good. Meanwhile with the performance evaluation module, the correlation coefficient of the dynamic target image range 0.1275 from 0.0035, and presented some ups and down. Under the dynamic condition, the adaptability of target and background was reflected. In view of the existing infrared camouflage technology, the next step, we want to carry out the camouflage effect measurement technology of the moving target based on infrared band.
The attenuation of light was a common result that the light was absorbed and scattered by the artificial fog particles when it transmitted in the artificial fog. The absorbing attenuation process of light transmission in the artificial fog was that the artificial fog converting incident light energy into other forms of internal energy (such as heat energy). The scattering attenuation process of light transmission in the artificial fog was that the artificial fog particles intercepting incident radiation energy to form infrasonic waves and to radiate peripherally so that the incident light energy was reduced on the original direction of transmission. The mechanism of light transmission attenuation in the artificial fog was analyzed. The formation method of the artificial fog was expounded and the measuring principle of the artificial fog transmittance was described. A simple and reliable measurement method of the optical transmittance of the artificial fog in the fog chamber was proposed. The optical transmittance measurement system of the artificial fog was built by using incandescent lamp, power with steady current and voltage, lens, selenium photocell, micro-galvanometer, optical bench, hygrothermograph, humidifier, etc. Under different conditions of humidity, the optical transmittance of the artificial fog was obtained on the basis of measuring the photocurrent before the fog was formed in the fog chamber. The test results show that the measurement system is stable and reliable. During the 43 minutes after the artificial fog was formed, the optical transmittance of the artificial fog was averagely less than 5 percent and the optical transmittance increased gradually with the extension of time. In addition, the optical transmittance of artificial fog didn’t produce obvious change while air humidity increased from 68.7% to 85%. The measurement system can be used to measure transmittance of smoke screen, water mist and other aerosol.
In order to enhance the observability of multispectral image and improve the accuracy of camouflage effect evaluation based on multispectral photographic. A new method for multispectral image processing has been put forward. In the visible band, more spectral images for image fusion which are based on wavelet transformation respectively are chosen. The image information is enhanced. The visible light and near infrared band images are fused and introduced in three-channel of red, green and blue. The true color image is synthetized. While the detail of visible light image is enhanced, near infrared image information which is more interesting in camouflage evaluation is kept. Finally the fusion image are processed through histogram stretching and correlation method. The image color and luminance difference of each part is enhanced. The target recognition and camouflage effect evaluation is more advantageous. The experimental results proved that the method has a good effect.
