    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cloaking_device

    An operational, non-fictional cloaking device might be an extension of the basic technologies used by stealth aircraft, such as radar-absorbing dark paint, optical camouflage, cooling the outer surface to minimize electromagnetic emissions (usually infrared), or other techniques to minimize other EM emissions, and to minimize particle emissions from the object.

  4. Theories of cloaking - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Theories_of_cloaking

    A cloaking device is one where the purpose of the transformation is to hide something, so that a defined region of space is invisibly isolated from passing electromagnetic fields (see Metamaterial cloaking [1] [2]) or sound waves. Objects in the defined location are still present, but incident waves are guided around them without being affected ...

  5. Metamaterial cloaking - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Metamaterial_cloaking

    The purpose of a cloaking device is to hide something, so that a defined region of space is invisibly isolated from passing electromagnetic fields (or sound waves), as with Metamaterial cloaking. [5] [13] Cloaking objects, or making them appear invisible with metamaterials, is roughly analogous to a magician's sleight of hand, or his tricks ...

  6. Rochester Cloak - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rochester_Cloak

    Rochester Cloak is a cloaking device which can be built using inexpensive, everyday materials. John Howell, a professor of physics at the University of Rochester, and graduate student Joseph Choi developed the device, which features four standard lenses that allows an object to appear invisible as the viewer moves several degrees away from the optimal viewing positions.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boat_building

    A number of boat building texts are available which describe the carvel planking method in detail. [4] Clinker is a planking-first technique originally identified with the Scandinavians and Ingveonic people in which wooden planks are fixed to each other with a slight overlap that is beveled for a tight fit. The planks are mechanically connected ...

    A line tied with a cleat hitch to a horn cleat [1] on a dock. The line comes from a boat off the top of the picture, around the right horn, around the left horn, across the cleat from top left to bottom right, around the right horn, and then hitches around the left horn.
