A team of researchers at UC Berkeley have developed a new technology that will allow you to in theory become invisible. Finally a replacement for Clearasil.
“Scientists say they are a step closer to developing materials that could render people and objects invisible. Researchers have demonstrated for the first time they were able to cloak three-dimensional objects using artificially engineered materials that redirect light around the objects. Previously, they only have been able to cloak very thin two-dimensional objects.”
This technology, unfortunately, will be strictly for military use. It would be an incredible feat to be able to hide a invading platoon or a brigade of tanks.
“This is the first time where we show that you can actually take electromagnetic waves and wrap them around some region that you want to conceal and restore them on the other side. The electromagnetic sleight-of-hand is enabled by novel, human-made substances called metamaterials.”
This technology was originally discovered by Ted Danson who has been using it to hide his career for years now.
