Textron has received a newly granted patent for a cloaking system that makes aircraft blend into their surroundings. The technology (USPTO #12366432) uses onboard cameras to detect nearby colors during flight and activates electroluminescent paint to match, allowing the aircraft to dynamically fade into its environment. The patent was invented by Adam S. Menard of Aledo and is assigned to Textron Innovations Inc. of Providence. [Composite illustration: Sources, USPTO Patent #12366432, Fig. 1; DI Studio]
