It’s true, well, sort of.
It figures that some folks over in Japan have developed an Optical Camouflage suit. It works by projecting a video image of the background behind the subject onto the suit’s reflective material. In essence, the subject appears to blend into the background, as if they weren’t there.
This could have all sorts of applications and I’m sure the military would give a few bucks to get their hands on this technology. Of course, there are some issues to be worked out, like how to have a video camera “floating” around the soldier in just the right place so the enemy doesn’t see them and…well, you get the point.
It’s certainly an interesting breakthrough.
Can I make a design suggestion from the peanut gallery? I’ve read the last 10 or 20 posts on this site over the last week or so and I’ve always wondered where the links are to the subjects you are posting about. Only now did I notice the “visit site” button.
Obviously you should just take my suggestion with a grain of salt, but perhaps you should hyperlink part of your entry text? Or at least move the “visit site” link into the main entry area. Right now, it’s below the Google ads we are all trained to ignore.
Ignoring our Google Ads!!! Shame on you ;-) The visit site link is getting tweaked as we speak.
Oh and since this is MacGeek’s thread I forgot to mention how f’ing sweet that camoflouge suit is. Definitely need that in the club when the ol gals walk by.
