940 forum posts 30 photos	Thanks Michael, interesting article and one wonders what it will lead to in the future. Don't like the colour/pattern of your wallpaper/paint then just get sample for it to match to and voila a redecorated room. As you say significant military potential and as the colours are defined by temperature it could also break up an IR image to make it less identifiable though IR camouflage is already an established process for concealment.
