A team of American and British researchers has made a Cloak of Invisibility. Well, OK, it's not perfect. Yet. But it's a start, and it did a pretty good job of hiding a copper cylinder. In this ...

In the movie "Predator," an alien uses a cloaking device to hide in plain sight, but the effect is far from perfect: The alien's attempt to conceal itself is thwarted by distortions of light bending ...

An "invisibility cloak" that's able to hide items thousands of times larger than before now exists, scientists say. The first hints that cloaking devices might one day become more than just a "Star ...

Researchers have developed a new design for a cloaking device that overcomes some of the limitations of existing “invisibility cloaks.” In a new study, electrical engineers at the University of ...

Harry Potter and Captain Kirk would be proud. A team of American and British researchers has made a Cloak of Invisibility. Well, OK, it's not perfect. Yet. But it's a start, and it did a pretty good ...

An invisibility cloak under development at Duke University is a new and improved version of one announced in 2006 by the same researchers. Duke graduate researcher Nathan Landy shows the invisibility ...

Duke University has built the first 3D omnidirectional acoustic invisibility cloak. The cloaking device, which takes the form of a pyramid of perforated plastic, is hidden from sound waves striking it ...

Structures to render objects invisible to optical waves have been investigated extensively, but all implementations so far have limitations. Three-dimensional cloaks that use conformal mapping and ...
