A really cool new concept is making its debut soon that will allow camera technology to see one thing while our normal human eyes miss out on the extra content.
Called kameraflage, I think the below image does it far more justice than my words every could.
Other proposed uses for this technology include being able to put messages on movie screens that cell phone cameras could see, or blocking video cameras from seeing movies.
I would wear clothing that allowed me to secretly express myself to those taking my picture. It could be fun.

It’s going to kill the illegal movie bootlegging business in China.
That model looks deathly anorexic. Look at the size of her arms.

Agreed on both counts.
Get that woman a sandwich. While you’re at it I’ll take one too. No Tomatoes.
Hey, that’s my sister. Be nice.
She’s actually quite healthy. The photo makes her look skinnier than she really is.
Sounds like it uses infrared which silicon is sensitive to, although not sure how it gets around the fact that there are usually IR filters in camera lenses.
My guess is that the clothing must be using a fluorescing infrared dye. This would work best if you can wash it off and change the message as often as you like. Cool.
