Japanese scientist invents 'invisibility cloak'

A Japanese scientist has developed a coat which appears to make the wearer invisible




The illusion was part of a demonstration of optical camouflage technology at Tokyo University.

It is the brainchild of Professor Susumu Tachi who is in the early stage of research he hopes will eventually make camouflaged objects virtually transparent.

The photograph was taken through a viewfinder that uses a combination of moving images taken behind the wearer to give a transparent effect.

It's hoped the technology will be useful for surgeons frustrated their own hands and surgical tools can block their view of operations and pilots who wish cockpit floors were transparent for landings.

that is cool.isn't that the same thing used in bond films ? :crazy:

WOW
thats nuts hey

wait...so...is it real?? does it really make it so you can see through a person?? or is it "trick camera"

ok, i can still see that person.. must still not be fully working haha

I didn't read the whole article, but if you look at the people walking "through" the cloak it looks like the perspective is off, which would imply that the image of them was taken at a higher angle than the camera taking the foreground picture. The shadows don't line up either.

Anyhow, no time to read the article right now. Are they recording the image from behind and then projecting it on the front? That's what it looks like.

b

its an illusion..

yeah, they just cut off her head and slapped in onto a translucent suit. :yes: thats pretty cool though, if its real

there was also a thing on TLC with tanks using similar technology. it dosnt make the object transparent, but translucent. enough where its hard as hell.... almost impossible to pic out a stationary object with a background around it(trees, bushes, etc)

looks pretty cool..now only if somone could make a real invisible cloak...;)

or X ray glasses... every 10 year olds dream... ahh those were the days

dude where do you find all this stuff chris?

looks like its time for you to watch/read some harry potter or play zelda link to the past...invisibility cloaks are fun :D;)

I want one of those...no..make it two! :D

2 of them won't make you perfectly invisible :crazy:

lol..I saw harry potter a few weeks ago in the movies...pretty good movie...lol:crazy:
