Invisibility Cloaks, “Quantum Stealth Technology” Becoming a Reality For Soldiers

Sunday, December 16, 2012 - by Seth Colaner
Harry Potter’s invisibility cloak was almost too fantastical a magical item (and made for a cheap and easy literary foil to allow some of the main characters in the series to move from place to place and eavesdrop) to be believable even in fantasy novels, but a company called Hyperstealth Biotech Corp claims to have a camouflage material that provides that exact capability to soldiers.

Called “Quantum Stealth”, the fabric supposedly works by bending light around itself so that observers can’t see that someone is there. Unfortunately, Hyperstealth Biotech won’t divulge any of the details of how the technology works, so it’s impossible to confirm or deny the validity of the company’s assert




Invisibility Cloaks,

Cool. Lame analogy, though. This would be more akin to Star Trek's cloaking devices or Predator's invisibility. That Potter crap is just plain nonsensical poofery.
Hey! harry Potter is based on real life!

OK, maybe not, but it wasn't poofery and Harry wasn't a poofter. Well, maybe he was... (it is Saturday afternoon and I'm punchy after last night's festivities)..
