The mesh material is partially transmissive such that a portion of incident radiation from an exterior of the hunting blind is reflected back into the exterior, a portion of incident radiation from an interior of the hunting blind is transmitted through the mesh material to the exterior and an intensity ratio of the reflected portion to the transmitted portion during daylight conditions is above a threshold value such that the exterior of the hunting blind is visible from the interior and the interior of the hunting blind is not visible from an exterior of the hunting blind. A hunting blind is also provided that includes a frame including frame members and panels of the mesh material attached to the frame members. ## Claims ### Claim 1 A camouflage structure comprising: a pop-up frame including a plurality of flexible frame members, said plurality of flexible frame members comprising at least two spaced apart frame members; a plurality of panels of a mesh material defining an outer surface of the camouflage structure and attached to the flexible frame members covering an area between the spaced apart frame members and defining an interior of the camouflage structure; and one or more panels of non-mesh material provided along a roof of the camouflage structure and attached to the flexible frame members; wherein the mesh material is interwoven fabric with a camouflage pattern printed on a first side, and a second side with a dark color coating, said second side opposite to the first side; and wherein the mesh material is partially transmissive and has an aperture density that corresponds to an airflow between 30% and 40%, wherein the airflow is defined as a ratio of a velocity of outgoing air from the mesh material to a velocity of incident air onto the mesh material. ### Claim 2 (depends on 1) The camouflage structure of claim 1, comprising a front side and a back side each formed by the frame members and panels of the mesh material secured between the frame members, wherein a door is formed in one of the back side and the front side. ### Claim 3 (depends on 1) The camouflage structure of claim 1, wherein the mesh material is partially transmissive such that a portion of incident radiation from an exterior of the camouflage structure is reflected off the camouflage pattern back into the exterior, a portion of incident radiation from an interior of the camouflage structure is transmitted through the mesh material to the exterior and wherein a ratio of an intensity of the reflected portion to an intensity of the transmitted portion is above a threshold value such that an exterior of the camouflage structure is visible through the camouflage material from the interior of the camouflage structure and the interior of the camouflage structure is not visible through the mesh material from the exterior of the camouflage structure. ### Claim 4 (depends on 1) The camouflage structure of claim 1, wherein the frame members have a variation in the spacing between the spaced apart frame members. ### Claim 5 (depends on 1) The camouflage structure of claim 1, wherein the frame includes a pair of sides, a front side and a back side, and wherein the frame includes the frame members and wherein panels of the mesh material are secured between the frame members to form at least one window in one or more of the pair of sides, the front side and the back side. ### Claim 6 (depends on 1) The camouflage structure of claim 1, wherein said panels of mesh material comprise; a first panel attached to the spaced apart frame members to cover a first area between the spaced apart frame members, and a second panel attached to the spaced apart frame members to cover a second area between the spaced apart frame members, and wherein the first panel and the second panel are one of; positioned such that the second panel is opposite to the first panel on the frame and the second panel is oriented parallel to the first panel, and disposed at an angle relative to each other. ### Claim 7 (depends on 1) The camouflage structure of claim 1, wherein the plurality of frame members are configured to form an enclosure that surrounds the interior. ### Claim 8 (depends on 1) The camouflage structure of claim 1, wherein the panels of mesh material and the panels of non-mesh material cover the area between the spaced apart frame members and define the interior of the camouflage structure. ### Claim 9 (depends on 8) The camouflage structure of claim 8, wherein the panels of non-mesh material are non-transmissive such that incident radiation from an exterior of the camouflage structure is not transmitted through the non-mesh material. ### Claim 10 (depends on 9) The camouflage structure of claim 9, wherein the panels of non-mesh material comprises roof panels and wherein the non-mesh material comprises polystrene.
