In comparison to last two editions, when the exhibition was separated from the NATO Conference, Future Forces 2016 was way more attractive and the number of exhibitors raised. INVISTA CORDURA CORDURA brand is a well- known trademark in tactical and outdoor communities. Their durable and rugged fabrics based on Nylon 6.6 can be found in almost every part of tactical gear or hiking gear. Less people know that CORDURA fabrics can be also utilized in the combat uniforms, including the fire resistant clothing. During the Future Forces 2016 we have spotted a prototype combat shirt from USMC EFRCE com- bat uniform which will replace the currently used USMC FROG II ensemble. Other interesting piece was prototype combat uniform and tactical gear gear with fabrics dyed in Solution Dyed Nylon or SDN in short, where every yarn is dyed to the required color. This allows to achieve a single and unified color on completely different fabrics - there won’t be a difference in shades of FR uniform clothing and Cordura 500D webbing as it happens now, when older tech- nologies are used. The colorfastness of SDN fabrics is far ahead of standard fabrics. THERMOTEKNIX This British company specialized in the thermal cameras and devices, most famous from the ClipIR thermal clip-on which could be attached to almost every night vision device, debuted the prototype of FuseIR monocular device combining the image intensifier with thermal camera in single units.

  • Assessment of Camouflage Effectiveness Based on Perceived Color Difference and Gradient Magnitude
    sensors Letter Assessment of Camouflage Effectiveness Based on Perceived Color Difference and Gradient Magnitude Xueqiong Bai, Ningfang Liao * and Wenmin Wu National Laboratory of Colour Science and Engineering, School of Optics and Photonics, Beijing Institute of Technology, Beijing 100081, China; [email protected] (X.B.); [email protected] (W.W.) * Correspondence: [email protected]; Tel.: +86-136-7121-0649 Received: 22 June 2020; Accepted: 16 August 2020; Published: 19 August 2020 Abstract: We propose a new model to assess the effectiveness of camouflage in terms of perceived color difference and gradient magnitude. The “image color similarity index” (ICSI) and gradient magnitude similarity deviation (GMSD) were employed to analyze color and texture differences, respectively, between background and camouflage images. Information entropy theory was used to calculate weights for each metric, yielding an overall camouflage effectiveness metric. During the analysis process, both spatial and color perceptions of the human visual system (HVS) were considered, to mimic real-world observations. Subjective tests were used to compare our proposed method with previous methods, and our results confirmed the validity of assessing camouflage effectiveness based on perceived color difference and gradient magnitude. Keywords: image processing; color appearance; camouflage effectiveness 1. Introduction Camouflage, which serves to blend objects into the background by using similar colors and patterns, has many applications in the fields of bionics and robotics, and for military purposes. Over the past few decades, elements of computer vision, statistical analysis, image processing, nanomaterials, human visual perception, and ergonomics have been introduced to camouflage research [1–5]. A good evaluation method to test the effectiveness of camouflage is very important—one which can provide an effective theoretical basis for camouflage research, predict the performance of camouflage in advance, and help to subsequently optimize the design of camouflage patterns.

  • Bilder Einer Besseren Welt : Die Utopie Im Nichtfiktionalen Film
    Zurich Open Repository and Archive University of Zurich Main Library Strickhofstrasse 39 CH-8057 Zurich www.zora.uzh.ch Year: 2019 Bilder einer besseren Welt : die Utopie im nichtfiktionalen Film Spiegel, Simon Abstract: Seit Thomas Morus’ «Utopia» sind in den letzten 500 Jahren zahlreiche literarische Werke erschienen, die eine bessere Welt entwerfen. Im Film scheint die positive Utopie dagegen inexis tent. Die bisherige Forschung konzentrierte sich fast ausschließlich auf dystopische Spielfilme, da positive Szenar- ien den Anforderungen des Mediums angeblich zuwiderlaufen. «Bilder einer besseren Welt» wählt einen anderen Ansatz und nimmt, ausgehend von der Erkenntnis, dass auch literarische Utopien primär als Reaktionen auf eine missliche Gegenwart und nicht als unter haltendeErzählungen gedacht sind, mit dem Doku mentar- und Propagandafilm einen bisher kaum erforschten Bereich in den Fokus. Die Studie baut auf aktuellen Erkenntnissen der Utopie -und Dokumentar filmforschung auf und behandelt ein historisch und thematisch weit gefasstes Filmkorpus. Zu den unter suchten Werken gehören zionistische Propa- ganda filme,filmische Stadtutopien, sozialistische Zukunfts filmesowie Web- Videosder Terrororganisation Islamischer Staat.
