Quantum Stealth

 Remember the invisibility cloak from Harry Potter, after wearing which he becomes invisible. We have seen or heard about invisibility in fantasies or in fiction but now its possible. Yes, you heard it right. Now it’s possible for human beings to camouflage themselves. A material called Quantum stealth made it possible. Quantum stealth is based on light bending technology.

   

Quantum stealth is developed by Hyperstealth Biotechnology corp. whose CEO is Guy Cramer. Hyperstealth found in 1990 is a Canadian company which manufacture military camouflage uniforms. Quantum stealth is one of the materials developed by Hyperstealth for military to make them invisible. Now, how actually this happens that something become invisible? To know this, first we should know that how are we able to see something. We can see an object when the light reflected from that object enters our eyes. This makes a real inverted image of that object on our retina which is further erected by brain. So, we see objects when light ray is reflected from it. What will happen if light not get reflected? Of course, we will not be able to see that object. This principle was used to develop quantum stealth. It bends the light wave around the target thus making it covert. It even makes the shadows invisible. This material also works against IR scopes and Thermal optics.

This material is not available and will not be in near future for general public. This technology is only made for military purpose. But I wish that some technologies be developed for commercial purpose also, so that I can also get camouflaged and eat my sister’s chocolate 🤣.
