Looks like Harry Potter’s invisibility cloak wasn’t that magical after all. Russian scientists at the Saratov State University have announced the creation of unique camouflage material or an invisibility cloak, to protect the army from enemies. The technology of surface nano-processing of materials has allowed Russian scientists to create unique camouflage materials that could help conceal the...

American scientists say they have developed an ultra-thin invisibility cloak that can wrap around a 3D object and hide it from detection. Researchers at the US Department of Energy’s Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory and the University of California, Berkeley have... 

A news ‘invisibility’ cloaking device has been unveiled by US scientists, which they say can be constructed at home, causes no distortion of objects in the background, and can conceal objects in 3D from different angles. Scientists from upstate New York’s University of Rochester have managed to create the device, which looks like a set of optometrist’s equipment and can bend light around... 

Findings: researchers found that these tiny invisibility cloaks altered around 20 per cent of any given surface area While the idea of an invisibility cloak may seem more science fiction than actual science, a group of American researchers are well on their way. Researchers from Towson University and the University of Maryland used 25,000 individual cloaks 30 micrometres in diameter to slow down light...
