invisibility cloak is now reality

quote:
A new metamaterial created by Rice University scientists could hide objects from human sight.

By creating perfectly aligned dimples in a material, the scientists channeled specific wavelengths of light from many directions into one uniform direction.

The first "invisibility cloak," which hid objects from radio waves, was created in 2006 by scientists from Duke. Since then scientists have tried to create ever-smaller structures to manipulate the visible spectrum of light.

If I had one that actually worked.... man, I can't even imagine the things I would do.

1) Stow away on airplanes, cruises, etc. for free awesome vacations.

2) Hide in banks or famous art gallaries until after hours while everyone is gone, and steal lots of money and priceless art.

3) Get into whatever sporting event I wanted.

4) Listen in on private meetings in the white house.

5) Be a voyeur.

all your options are meaningless when done alone. and with regard to the museum/bank, how the hell do you expect to get into the secured art pieces or locked vault?! the only time those areas are opened are during business hours, and you don't think employees would be suspicious if they see cash hovering out of the vault and disappearing?!

What 29 second segment of that clip did you find thought-provoking or useful? I'll take the whole 59 back, please.
