How cool is that?

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

Wait.. so did he make actually make it or is that just a photograph of what he hopes it will look like?


Japanese Scientist invents Invisibility Cloak - Weltall - 5th February 2003

I believe that is a concept photograph, not the real invisibility suit.


Japanese Scientist invents Invisibility Cloak - OB1 - 5th February 2003

So it hasn't been made yet, right?

So far, it's about as real as our own government's conceptual designs for the same kind of suit. The idea is to use a complicated web of fibre optic cables to transfer all the light hitting one side to the other, where it's let go in about the same area, OR (here's the other one on the show I saw) to use a sort of memory material that works a lot like a photograph and those little toys in the cereal you used to get that would glow in the dark after you stored a bunch of light in them by holding them by a light bulb. You get the idea there.

Anyway, this is just the latest article regarding yet another guy working on such a project. Until they manage to get so invisible a bumper guardian doesn't see them and they grab a piece of heart, it's just a passing fancy.

I wonder if he's wearing shoes in that picture...

His massive weight is burrowing his feet into the sand, so we may never know...

That's my favorite. God he's sexy. In a '15 year old boy looking like a 30 year old 400 pound lesbian' way.

Although the more I look at it, the more I think it's fake.


Japanese Scientist invents Invisibility Cloak - OB1 - 7th February 2003

It has to be fake. It just has to.


Japanese Scientist invents Invisibility Cloak - Dark Jaguar - 7th February 2003

....You actually thought it was real? Oh, well I guess it's hard to find any image altering, mainly because it's not even needed to fake the pick when you can dig holes in the sand with your own two hands :D.


Japanese Scientist invents Invisibility Cloak - OB1 - 7th February 2003

Hahahaha! Ack!! *chokes*

Good LORD did you hear the mp3 sample at that site???!!!

I'm not sure if this is fake. It's too elaborate.

Six and a half years later, the fancy is now much closer to reality:
