digital camo

Squared-off military pattern

Digital camo is a camouflage pattern made of small rectangular pixels rather than the organic blobs of traditional camouflage.

The pixelated design, developed through computer modeling, supposedly breaks up outlines more effectively at various distances.

It became standard in many military uniforms in the early 2000s: The soldiers wore digital camo that looked like a video game glitch.
