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.
To make an object literally vanish before a person's eyes, a cloak would have to simultaneously interact with all of the wavelengths, or colors, that make up light. On the other hand, a group of researchers connected with Berkeley Lab and the University of California, Berkeley believe that cloaking at optical frequencies is indeed possible ...
By using two parabolic cylindric mirrors and one plane mirror, the image of the background is directed around an object, making the object itself invisible - at least from two sides. Invisibility is the state of an object that cannot be seen. An object in this state is said to be invisible (literally, "not visible").
Shadow banning, also called stealth banning, hell banning, ghost banning, and comment ghosting, is the practice of blocking or partially blocking a user or the user's content from some areas of an online community in such a way that the ban is not readily apparent to the user, regardless of whether the action is taken by an individual or an algorithm.
A pair of Saturday NFL games drew a larger viewing audience than college football for the rollout of the sport's 12-team playoff. The playoff game between SMU and Penn State averaged 6.4 million ...
A litter of two-week old puppies was crammed into a bucket and abandoned alongside a road in Union County, New Jersey on Thursday, police said. The nine puppies were found...
A fog of war system is used, in that enemy units that are not adjacent to an enemy unit are invisible to the player. Enemy units become visible if they are discovered by the player in the course of his or her turn, until contact is lost and the enemy unit is no longer visible.
Stanley is recalling 2.6 million mugs sold in the U.S. after the company received dozens of consumer complaints, including some users who reported getting burned and requiring medical attention ...
