That’s why you need to use a survival blanket as an inner layer to reflect the heat, some neutral-colored canvas as a middle-layer, and the camo netting as an outer layer. Preferably with a few inches of separation between each one.
Maybe add in some faraday fabric if you have anything that emits signals
And an SDR on a raspberry pi with some python libraries to scan for incoming threats.
It’s not perfect but it’s better than being a sitting duck
Oh yeah, I was thinking if you had to hide a whole base of operations, command post, resupply depot, or sentinel outpost.
If you’re on the move in a scenario like this, then you’d need to have some means of taking down a drone, and hope to high hell you won’t need to use it.
Mud is a decent insulator so you could smear yourself with that. In the winter you could wear quilted fabrics under a windbreaker. Basically the more insulation keeping the cold off your skin, the more it’s keeping your body heat from being visible to IR.
I also think glass blocks heat radiation to some degree, so maybe using that as some type of parasol or shield, but that might be less feasible. Lining an umbrella with a survival blanket might be possible, but again test it with your own IR lens to be sure
Ha, they’d never do that…
btw, Have you noticed camo netting has gotten crazy expensive? Must just be inflation
Who gives a shit about nets those things have infrared heat detection.
And tiny propellers that get snagged in nets.
And sometimes the bigger ones too:
Excellent point I hadn’t thought of that.

Hmmm. Problem I see with that is the thermal blanket reflects IR away from itself, so if you are inside of it, you still heat up.
Yes, and that keeps the warmth inside the tent, so that it’s not visible to IR from the outside.
You can test it first if you have an IR lens. If you’re handy with solder you can build one with parts from arduino, mouser or similar
Oh, I meant that it essentially gets hotter over time. If you’re on the move, that could become a problem pretty fast

Great ideas imo
Just some good old-fashioned innocent cyberpunk doomsday scenario role play
Nothing to see here!
Emphasis on camo. They have some ir blocking.
To a point. The heat has to go somewhere.
Ideally there’s an air gap between the hot thing and the net. The heat shouldn’t transfer directly to the net.
