Hyperstealth to market Invisibility Cloak

Hyperstealth Announced on the 8th of October their new Hyperstealth patent pending Quantum Stealth (Invisibility Cloak). This just the latest from this defense contractor. They have some multi laser LIDAR as well. I just thought this would make an interesting topic for a weaponry post. Looking at their site and watching the videos was pretty fascinating to me.

Here is the link to their press release with regards to this technology.

It’s a piece of plastic! Did it come in a Cracker Jack box with X-ray glasses and a decoder ring? Sorry to crap all over this invention but honestly this will never be used in combat

I think it's an interesting technology but it's far from being useful enough for the military to use.

You could hide an object or a person behind it to stop the enemy being able to identify what it is behind the material however the material itself would be identified as a suspicious man-made stealth object and be thermal scanned then probably shot at.

but Guy demonstrates that it also bends in the Ultraviolet, Infrared and Shortwave Infrared while it blocks the Thermal Spectrum, making it a true “Broadband Invisibility Cloak”.

Apparently not to be fair.

May be something to look at for deer hunting

That's about what we saw in the video from a decade ago.....here at A T S. two soldiers coming out of a Bradley like thing in the war in Iraq I guess....it worked but you could see em getting back in....

Too cumbersome, and too easily scratched-up, IMO.

For hunting and general stalking, I'd recommend Hecs technologies;

Hecs® patented technology blocks your naturally occurring electrical signature and lets people get a closer, safer, interaction with wildlife and nature.

As for the OP, I scanned past something about this yesterday but I just thought 'huh, cool', and moved on.

I should have read it, it's actually pretty interesting,

@GBP/JPY Good call, I'd forgotten about that!

Aye at Hogwarts maybe.

But not quite in the real world just yet if we are looking for true mobile invisibility.

Cheating

I think it's an upgrade from a childs toy. I don't know what it's called but I bet you've all seen one. A small picture yet tip the picture a bit and you get a different picture.
