**Scientific wizards find real cloak of invisibility **
Objects are visible because light bounces off them; if this can be prevented and if the objects did not reflect any light, they would become invisible. The “plasmonic screen” achieves this by resonating in tune with the illuminating light.
Imagine the applications..

Good Idea :k:

^ ^ I was thinking of more practical use of it:devil:
Re: The Invisibles..
point to be noted from the article:
"Although no final product has been made, the engineers claim their proposal "does not obviously violate any of the laws of physics"."
There are a lot of processes which are possible in theory but that doesn't mean they are practically achievable. Same goes for this. I'll believe it when they actually come up with it :p
Re: The Invisibles..
wrong. technically they wud not be invisible. they would merely be black colored objects. in order to be invisible, objects have to allow light to pass through or in other words, a person who sees an invisible person shud be able to see what the invisible person would obscure if he/she were visible.
Re: The Invisibles..
exactly. Thats what i was about to say. When you are in a room with no lights, the room is dark, not invisible. The device sounds like an expensive substitute to the good old all black clothes and sock on your head.
Re: The Invisibles..
^^ I agree, by resonating with the illuminating light, the object will just appear black and would easily standout from the background.

Looks like guppies these days seem to be brighter than the scientists. Good observations!
