CLAIM: SECRET CAMO CAN MAKE AMERICAN SOLDERS TRULY INVISIBLE & THE PHOTOS WILL BLOW YOUR MIND!


The Pentagon is betting big on a real life invisibility cloak for American solders, according to recent reports.

Hyperstealth Biotechnology Corp, a Canadian company known for its innovative camo technology, is attempting to revolutionize the battlefield by providing true invisibility for soldiers. The special material being used is know as Quantum Stealth. The pictures posted on the company’s website of the fabric, which apparently bends light to create the effect, look as though they are straight out of a Harry Potter movie:

Hmmmm, seems a bit odd, we cant have video of this amazing top secret stuff, but we can have stills? And the only source is a company release? Hmmmm, sorry, but I aint buying it yet.


The basic concept of receive image behind, transmit forward has been around a while, getting to actually work against real eyeballs that are moving, thats the hard part. The human eye has millenia of development of spotting threats, that's hard to beat.

That that field image. The camo tarp itself should be obscuring light, making the image of the portion underneath darker than the surroundings. Can this stuff really process the image real time to allow for that? I'm just not thinking this is possible real time.

So... how long before someone starts running around with a wand and calling himself Harry?

There are a couple liberals running around the forums that should be calling themselves "Tinker Belle."
