How to Make an Object Invisible A new theoretical design using nanowires provides a way to hide devices from visible light.

Forget Harry Potter and his "invisibility cloak" -- theoretical physicists in the UK and US have proposed a clever way of making objects invisible. It would involve surrounding the object by a ...

How to thermally cloak an object Theoretical method can make objects invisible to a thermal camera, or mimic a different object Date: May 12, 2021 Source: University of Utah Summary: Can you feel ...

Researchers at the University of Texas have, for the first time, 'cloaked' a three-dimensional object - bringing the idea of an 'invisibility cloak' a step closer. But we're not in Harry Potter ...

That means the object is invisible, from any angle of observation. "This object's invisibility is independent of where the observer is," Professor Andrea Alu, the study's co-author, tells Danger Room.

High-tech cloaking machines could render small objects invisible and perhaps improve military stealth technology.

Using their mathematical model, they were able to make one object look like a completely different object to the thermal camera. One drawback of the proposed cloaking system is that the temperature of ...
