Imitation snake skin fabric C014 / 0269
Imitation snake skin fabric. This imitation snakeskin pattern is made from array of optical tiles. Each optical tile is a beveled, cylindrical pixel with an angled surface that reflects a particular, precisely determined amount of light. The result is an image or pattern formed into the material itself. Image processing software, known as Ombrae, converts images into pixels and instructs casting or printing machinery to produce the angled cylinders. A variety of materials can be used with this technique, including metal, ceramics, plastics, textiles, glass and concrete. The system is able to produce materials at any scale large or small

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the mesmerizing beauty of imitation snake skin fabric. Created using an innovative technique, this pattern replicates the intricate scales of a snake through an array of optical tiles. Each tile is meticulously designed with beveled, cylindrical pixels that possess angled surfaces capable of reflecting specific amounts of light. The result is a stunning image or pattern seamlessly integrated into the very fabric itself. The process behind this remarkable creation involves cutting-edge image processing software called Ombrae, which converts images into pixels and provides instructions to casting or printing machinery for producing these angled cylinders. What makes this technique even more fascinating is its versatility - it can be applied to various materials such as metal, ceramics, plastics, textiles, glass, and even concrete. This means that the possibilities for creating visually striking patterns are virtually limitless. Not only does this imitation snakeskin fabric exemplify technological advancements in material science and industrial fabrication but it also highlights our ability to mimic nature's intricate designs through synthetic means. The attention to detail in replicating biological elements like snake skin demonstrates how far we have come in merging biology with technology. Pascal Goetgheluck's photograph from Science Photo Library captures the essence of this manmade marvel beautifully while reminding us of the endless wonders found within both natural and artificial realms.
