The experimental device is thin and flexible and can be applied to objects of very different sizes. The announcement comes from Dr. George Eleftheriades from the University of Toronto’s Department of Electrical & Computer Engineering.
This is not the first attempt for a cloaking device; it has been a highly researched area for years.
This new cloaking system, however, uses an ultra-thin layer of antennae which emits a signal to completely cancel out any reflection from radar, instead of merely distorting it.
This cloaking system currently just works with radio waves, but the research team says that this technology could be further developed to create the same results with light waves.
