 More on the Invisibility Cloak - Summary:
New information about the cloak in development has been revealed. Article: More on the Invisibility Cloak
Last month, some of you might recall that there was a post about an invisibility cloak created by Japanese scientists that is similar to what is used in Harry Potter. The July issue of Popular Science magazine has an article about military camoflauge that closely dupliates the technology of the Japanese cloaks.
"The basic principle is simple: Cameras would capture the scene behind the uniform while embedded displays would reproduce the image on its front."
Thanks to Veritaserum for the tip! | |

What I wouldn't do for an invisibility cloak. I'm always wanted to be able to be invisibile. It'd be nice to be able to travel the world for free, lol, and the other things you could do would be fun also.

Anyone who makes any of this stuff would be rich, but it would still be cool to have something 'magical'. :sorcerer:

That is soooo cool! Wow, science has gotten really advanced if we can make people invisible now. Maybe even one day we'll have a sport not so different than Quidditch!

Wow that is awsome, but it would probably cost like millions of dollars or euros or yen or some currency...

Wow, Thats pretty amazing - I can't see the UK government spending out all that money though for our troops. But it's a pretty neat innovation!

i admit it does sound interesting, but honestly, i dont think i'll be for the public at all...its all about military and stuff...they should develop something to do with flying! i think hover boards will be in the near future. MARK MY WORDS! 
i have the design in my book. to create it would be too soon...plus,im a imaginator (as i was dubbed by my friends for my thoughts of the future inventions)...not really a science whiz.
