Picture MUST credit: Kallisto AI
A camouflage system designed to protect military vehicles from drone attacks using decoys has been rolled out boy a defence company.
The idea is to confuse enemy systems by feeding them false or shifting signatures.
Called the Kallisto Shield, the tech uses modular panels and fake targets to manipulate how vehicles appear across visual, infrared, radar, and thermal spectrums to enemy weapons.
Spanish maker Kallisto AI says the panels can be rearranged into millions of combinations to conceal or mimic potential targets.
The decoys simulate the emissions of actual military assets, making it harder to distinguish real from fake.
The panels are carried on the roof of the vehicle being protected.
The panels are made up of layers of different materials to hide and/or diffuse the vehicle shape from infrared, radar, visual, thermal and multispectral signatures.
To protect a vehicle one of the panel layers is placed on a metal frame.
This tricks a drone for example into thinking it is a target.
There is no need for power or electronics, meaning the system does not emit electromagnetic signatures that enemy sensors can detect.
OPS:The system is carried on the roof of the vehicle being protected.It includes a frame whch is erected and a panel placed on it to confuse enemy systems, in this case a drone armed with rockets

Foam decoy cheese
Cheese Rolling in Brockworth, Gloucestershire, Britain - 27 May 2013
Cheese Rolling the world-famous competition, which sees thrill seekers chase an 8lb piece of Double Gloucester down a steep hill at Cooper's Hill in Brockworth, Gloucestershire. This year health and safety threatenend to stop the 200 year old race from taking place, with organisers were forced to use a foam decoy instead of real cheese. This was following the police telling cheese supplier Diane Smart that she would be held liable for any injuries suffered by the chasers. Army veteran Kenny Rackers of Colorado, America won the men's race, with Lucy Townsend aged 16 from Brockworth winning the women's race.

Great White Sharks hunting for Seals in False bay, South Africa - Aug 2008
Mandatory Credit: Photo by Dan Callister / Rex Features (848326l)
Hungry Shark Loses Lunch ... And A Tooth
This Great White shark lost not only its lunch but also its tooth when it attacked a decoy seal.
The hungry shark leapt out of the water to snatch up what it thought was a tasty Cape fur seal in its massive jaws.
However, it was actually a decoy and the over enthusiastic shark bit down so hard that one of its teeth was sent flying.
The moment was caught on camera by photographer Dan Callister off the coast of Seal Island near Cape Town, South Africa.
A large population of sharks patrol the waters around Seal Island, which is home to around 64,000 Cape Fur seals from April to September.
With such an abundant food supply close by, scores of sharks patrol the seas around the island on the look out for young and inexperienced seal pups.
To reach the open sea to feed the seals must first cross these shark-infested waters - passing through what is known as the 'ring of death'.
The predators then catch their prey in truly spectacular fashion.
Approaching from below, the sharks leap nearly vertically out of the waves to snatch seals swimming close to the surface.
The behaviour means that the area is acknowledged as the best in the world to witness sharks breaching.

The moment was caught on camera by photographer Dan Callister off the coast of Seal Island near Cape Town, South Africa.
A large population of sharks patrol the waters around Seal Island, which is home to around 64,000 Cape Fur seals from April to September.
With such an abundant food supply close by, scores of sharks patrol the seas around the island on the look out for young and inexperienced seal pups.
To reach the open sea to feed the seals must first cross these shark-infested waters - passing through what is known as the 'ring of death'.
The predators then catch their prey in truly spectacular fashion.
Approaching from below, the sharks leap nearly vertically out of the waves to snatch seals swimming close to the surface.
The behaviour means that the area is acknowledged as the best in the world to witness sharks breaching.

Hungry Shark Loses Lunch ... And A Tooth
This Great White shark lost not only its lunch but also its tooth when it attacked a decoy seal.
The hungry shark leapt out of the water to snatch up what it thought was a tasty Cape fur seal in its massive jaws.
However, it was actually a decoy and the over enthusiastic shark bit down so hard that one of its teeth was sent flying.

Great white sharks hunting Cape Fur seals off Seal Island, False Bay, South Africa - 28 Jul 2010
Mandatory Credit: Photo by Dan Callister / Rex Features ( 1215990b )
A Great White Shark breaches on a seal decoy, These pictures from South Africa display the breathtaking and terrifying hunting skills of the Great White sharks that patrol the waters off Seal Island in False Bay, 30km south of Cape Town.
The seas' largest predators leap nearly vertically out of the waves at speeds of to catch Cape (or Brown) Fur Seals swimming close to the surface.
The area is acknowledged as the best in the world to witness sharks breaching and taking to the air.
This is due to the presence of around 64,000 Cape Fur seals that call Seal Island (measuring just 800 metres by 50 metres) home from April to September.
The average Great White here measures 8-16ft, with reports suggesting the biggest was a 19ft 6in giant, spotted in 1997.
