Patent ID: 7966764

Claim:
A model of an animal, wherein an external surface of the model is divided into one or more regions, wherein at least one region of the one or more regions on the model represents a feature on the animal and is located on the model in a location corresponding to a location of the feature on the animal, wherein a surface coating consisting of a synthetic material has been applied to the at least one region, wherein the surface coating has a first spectral reflectance curve which includes wavelengths from 320 to 400 nanometers, wherein the first spectral reflectance curve comprises a percent reflectance value that is reflected from the surface coating for each wavelength between 320 and 400 nanometers, wherein the feature on the animal has a second spectral reflectance curve which includes wavelengths between 320 and 400 nanometers, wherein the second spectral reflectance curve comprises a percent reflectance value that is reflected from the feature on the animal for each wavelength between 320 and 400 nanometers, wherein the percent reflectance values of a majority of wavelengths of the first spectral reflectance curve substantially match the percent reflectance values of the corresponding wavelengths of the second spectral reflectance curve, wherein the surface coating does not comprise any portion of an animal.
