3:22 – “Then we have cylinder projection, which works great for cylinders, but not much else.”
If this was around during WW1, the boat painters who did Dazzle Camoflague would have had a great night out!

Had to google that, how in the world is that supposed to hide you from the enemy? Seems it would it would have the opposite effect in that people would get curious and head your way.

I had to Google it as well :). And I had the same question about how it would hide the ship from the enemy. Looks like it did not, the intention was to make the ship profile hard to read so enemies would have difficulties calculating speed and rage. Seems indeed exactly what a weird UV would do 🙂
