Yes, it’s true, the Harry Potter like invisibility cloak has now become a reality. Retro-reflective projection technology makes it possible for any object to become invisible. It uses a computer, a video camera and projector to shine background images onto the front of a subject wearing specialized clothing, creating the illusion of invisibility. It is a unique technology in which there is a fabric made of glass beads only 50 microns wide and can reflect light directly back at the source, much like the screen in a cinema and the projection is bright even in daylight. According to the researchers the material can be applied to anything. This technology can be used to create safety for pilots, drivers and many other area. It can also be used to create whole new form of computer-human interaction. Watch the video below and see how it works.
