I wanted to talk today about a different type of design. There have been movies that feature invisibility cloaks of some sort for many years, but while I was listening to my classical music station on the radio, the guy was talking about some advances in science that make invisibility cloaks a reality!
I think thats pretty amazing so I did a little research. This has actually been around for a few years! The first that I could find was in 2007 when Duke University cloaked a small piece of metal. Yea thats pretty cool, but the more recent advances are actually able to cloak a person!
The latest is called a carpet cloak and isn’t restricted by the viewing angle like the previous Japanese invisibility cloak which only works when viewed from a certain angle in a certain setting.
Pretty awesome, but can you imagine if this was available to the public? or worse, to those with authority like police or government officials?
What will they come up with next…
