Many of the modern day’s science advances were inspired by nature, after all, weren’t the Wright brothers inspired to take to the skies after seeing how birds flew so effortlessly? Researchers from the University of Dallas in Texas decided to draw inspiration from mirages in order to create an invisibility cloak that is said to be effective in hiding objects from view. Touted to function best when underwater, it comes with a near-instant on/off switch.
You will definitely need to check out the video right after the jump to get an idea on its effectiveness, and it would almost seem like magic to me. Simulating a mirage does not sound so easy, but I guess the smarties managed to get it done.
