Abstract
An interpretive garment marking system and method allows for one or more garments to be used to convey messages or information, or otherwise provide forms of interaction with a first group of humans. Conveyance and interaction with the first group is done without conveyance and interaction with a second different group of humans even though the humans of both groups have substantially similar access to visually perceive the garments. Implementations include encryption, keying, camouflage, authentication, masking, selection, signing, manipulation, and/or combination.
