The Dazzle Camouflage and the Camouflores

The Camouflores tested toy models by inviting in experienced submarine captains to peer through periscopes and report what angle they thought the models were appointed. The dazzle camouflage certainly made the ship stand out, but the bulging shapes and vivid hues also made it difficult to determine the speed and direction of the moving ship. It's preying on our assumptions about things looking smaller as they are more distant. So you could paint perspective patterns on a ship that would make it look like it was turning in a different direction when in fact you're actually seeing them frontally and they're absolutely flat.
