I have an idea for making an invisible cloak.
« on: November 26, 2010, 01:13:03 AM »
So on this "cloak" there are millions of microscopic mirrors all on an angle, so that they reflect what's behind you to the front. Pretty simple eh? I don't know how to make it or who will, or if it will work. So yeah. Suggestions?

That's the same idea they used to make James Bond's car invisible on 007. Seems like it would be flawed. Like, what if 1 mirror broke. or how would you make it looks smooth, and not choppy from all the straight lines between the mirrors. But i think it's cool.

Or you could invent a chemical that stops your skin from reflecting light.

Actually, it only reflects .1% the normal amount of light. That way, it actually keeps you invisible, rather than making your skin see-through and force everyone to stare at your organs.

Well, if your skin doesn't reflect light, it should absorb it... and things which absorb light appear as black...

If a problem can be solved, no need to worry about it. If it cannot be solved what is the use of worrying?

You should ask the British military.

The mirror Idea has been done, the most recent invisibility suit uses a poop ton of tiny cameras to reflect the surroundings on a hell of a lot of little mirrors to refract the surroundings, it looks kind of like halo 3's invisibility.
