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 ...

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

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

RESEARCHERS have discovered how to make objects entirely invisible in a major scientific breakthrough.

Militaries are likely to be very interested in a new cloaking material capable of making submarines completely ‘invisible’ to detection.

A study published in Nature Communications shows that if an object moves faster than our eyes can track, it becomes invisible to us. This "invisibility" depends on the speed of our saccades, which ...

Professor Chris Phillips from Imperial College London talks about some of the work being done on making invisibility a reality.

To make an object invisible, one must find a way to overcome the increased distance the light has to travel. To use driving as an analogy, changing one’s speed would solve this problem.
