Dazzle Camouflage - Modern Use

Modern Use

Museum ships HMS Belfast, moored in the River Thames in London, United Kingdom, HMCS Sackville, moored in Halifax Harbour in Halifax, Nova Scotia, Canada, and USS North Carolina, moored in Wilmington, North Carolina, United States, are painted in the dazzle camouflage they used during the Second World War.

Dazzle makeup, or "CV dazzle" (computer vision dazzle), to hamper facial recognition software, was inspired by dazzle camouflage. It has been shown to be somewhat successful at defeating face detection software in common use, including that employed by Facebook.

Famous quotes containing the word modern:

    The modern woman is the curse of the universe. A disaster, that’s what. She thinks that before her arrival on the scene no woman ever did anything worthwhile before, no woman was ever liberated until her time, no woman really ever amounted to anything.
    Adela Rogers St. Johns (1894–1988)

    If you look at the 150 years of modern China’s history since the Opium Wars, then you can’t avoid the conclusion that the last 15 years are the best 15 years in China’s modern history.
    J. Stapleton Roy (b. 1935)
