E-mail: [email protected] Abstract. Paper deals with the building visual detection problem. Particular buildings which are important to government infrastructure must have additional security means including camouflage painting to disguise from aerial reconnaissance and observation. The approach for computer-generated camouflge pattern design is proposed. The novelty of the proposed method consists of the consideration of the camouflaged building and urban environment fusion effect in description of the multicolor camouflage effectivity. An analytical method for determination of building camouflage effectivity is presented. This method is constructed within the framework of visual detection probabilities. The proposed method is illustrated by the design of the camouflage drawing geometry and determination of the effectivity characteristics for prescribed observation range. Keywords: building, camouflage pattern design, efficiency analysis.

    Tattici, Uniformi, Mimetismi, ed altre facezie… Breve guida a cura di EAF51_Bear V. 1.2. - Aprile 2013 Pag. 1 Indice Indice pag. 2 Introduzione pag. 3 Load Carrying Equipment (il tattico) pag. 4 Uniformi da combattimento pag. 18 Pattern mimetici pag. 23 Pag. 2 Introduzione Sono sempre stato appassionato di storia militare. Da anni utilizzo il simulatore di volo IL-2 Sturmovik, partecipando alle attività on-line dell’EAF – European Air Force (www.europeanaf.org) e del relativo Squadron italiano (www.eaf51.org) Da qualche anno, complici alcuni dei piloti virtuali dell’EAF, ho cominciato a giocare a softair. La pratica del softair, e l’esigenza di un adeguato equipaggiamento, mi ha portato a frequentare vari siti in Internet dove si discorre, tra l’altro, di mimetiche e accessori tattici. Molto spesso le descrizioni di divise, mimetiche, ed accessori sono imprecise, e spesso sbagliate. Un esempio per tutti è la designazione del mimetismo attualmente impiegato dall’US ARMY, spesso identificato come ACU. In realtà ACU, acronimo di Army Combat Uniform (uniforme da combattimento dell’esercito) identifica particolare taglio di uniforme, costituito da camicia con collo alla coreana, due tasche inclinate sul petto e due sulle parte superiore maniche, 8 tasche sui pantaloni (due ventrali, due posteriori, due sulle cosce, e due tasche caricatori Colt all’esterno del polpaccio). Il mimetismo digitale attualmente utilizzato dall’US Army si chiama invece UCP (Universal Camouflage Pattern) in genere anche denominato ACUPAT (Army Combat Uniform Pattern). Il diffuso utilizzo di queste imprecisioni mi ha spinto a provare di sistematizzare ed integrare in modo organico le informazioni di cui disponevo, cercando di identificare correttamente la tipologia delle uniformi, dei diversi mimetismi, dei Load Carrying Equipment, ed i loro acronimi.

  • All'inizio Del 1900 Erano Ben Pochi Gli Eserciti Che Adottavano Delle Divise
    All‘inizio del 1900 erano ben pochi gli eserciti che adottavano delle divise che potessero nascondere i propri soldati dall‘individuazione a lunga distanza, anzi le uniformi erano molto colorate per riconoscere i vari reggimenti impegnati nella lotta e avere una visione complessiva nella mischia. All‘inizio della prima guerra mondiale l‘esercito francese si presentava con uniformi di colore rosso-blu, mentre l‘esercito britannico indossava divise color kaki. Lo svilupparsi della guerra di trincea diede però una sostanziale svolta, tutti gli eserciti coinvolti, infatti, si apprestarono a cambiare le loro uniformi con altre meno visibili. In questo periodo iniziarono le prime ricerche sul camuffamento. L‘esercito americano istituì il —Camouflage Corps“ formata dalla quarantesima compagnia dei genieri nel 1917 (anno dell‘entrata nella prima guerra mondiale). L‘esercito Francese, grazie all‘aiuto di un soldato-pittore (Louis Guingot) creò la prima uniforme mimetica al "Magasins Réunis", ne furono create solo 5 esemplari. Il disegno fu chiamato —Lèopard“ (http://www.eclorraine.com/ginguot/camouf/guincam.html). Tra le due guerre mondiali, fondamentale fu l‘interessamento della ricerca fascista, il regime infatti sviluppò senza saperlo il più famoso dei pattern. Utilizzato dapprima per le tende, venne adottato più avanti come mimetica per i paracadutisti, e venne poi ripreso dall‘esercito cecoslovacco ed ungherese. Ebbe anche un discreto interesse tra gli alleati. L‘esercito tedesco iniziò lo studio dei disegni mimetici sui passi degli italiani, e costruirono grazie al Prof. Otto Schick, le prime divise per la Waffen-SS nel 1937. Durante la seconda guerra mondiale l‘asse sviluppò moltissimi disegni mimetici sulla base dei disegni Italiani, molti di questi utilizzati subito dopo la guerra.
