Camouflage

On both animals and military vehicles it is often important to have patterns that cannot be distinguished from a background by the visual systems of predators. And in most cases this is presumably best achieved by avoiding differences in densities of certain local features. Note that in a related situation almost any fairly random overlaid pattern containing many local features can successfully be used to mask the contents of a paper envelope.
