Danish technology will revolutionise thermal camouflage

The startup DECPT, led by former SDU-ph.d. Jeanette Hvam, has developed a new form of thermal camouflage that could change the game in warfare. The invention could not only save lives, but also shape the future of military technology. The wind howled through the bare trees and windows of the blown-out apartment building as the surveillance team marched up stairs covered in broken glass. The cold numbed their fingers as they set up their equipment: a thermal imaging camera the size of a laptop, its tripod and a Starlink dish and battery. So begins a report in The New York Times from December last year about a surveillance team led by an American known as Wolf. The journalist follows the soldiers who were the eyes of Ukraine in Bakhmut that night.
