CONCEALMENT METHOD AND CONCEALMENT SYSTEM - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18273180 titled 'CONCEALMENT METHOD AND CONCEALMENT SYSTEM
Simplified Explanation
The abstract describes a concealment method involving the use of optical elements to hide an object from view.
- Acquiring image data showing a background of an object
- Detecting a change in a component in a predetermined direction in the image data
- Determining a pseudo direction of the image data based on the detection result
- Arranging a first concealment body with optical elements between the object and an observation position, refracting light rays in a predetermined direction
Potential Applications
This technology could be used for military camouflage, surveillance operations, or even in the entertainment industry for special effects.
Problems Solved
This technology solves the problem of concealing objects from view in a more effective and efficient manner than traditional methods.
Benefits
The benefits of this technology include improved concealment capabilities, enhanced security measures, and potential cost savings in certain applications.
Potential Commercial Applications

- Surveillance Systems: Enhancing covert surveillance operations with improved concealment techniques
Unanswered Questions
How does this technology perform in different lighting conditions?
What is the durability and longevity of the optical elements used in the concealment body?
Original Abstract Submitted
A concealment method includes: acquiring image data showing a background of an object; detecting a change in a component in a predetermined direction included in the image data; determining a pseudo direction of the image data on the basis of the result of the detection; and arranging, between the object and an observation position of the object, a first concealment body including a plurality of optical elements having a property of refracting light rays in a predetermined direction and continuously arranged in an arrangement direction in a state of the arrangement direction being oriented in a direction along the pseudo direction.
