6. TYPES
Invisibility by cloaking can be performed in
2 ways
i.
By using meta-materials and
ii.
Invisible clock system of image projection
8. i.
To make visible things “invisible” we need to
consider the law of reflection of light
property, which is obtained by metamaterials
(material cloaking).
10. Metamaterials are artificial materials engineered to
have properties that may not be found in natural
materials.
Metamaterials can :
create negative index of refraction
guide wave in desired direction
13. A picture from “PREDATORS” movie that has INVISIBILITY kind of
technology similar to CLOAKING USING METAMATERIALS

15. ⅱ. INVISIBILITY CLOAK SYSTEM OF IMAGE
PROJECTION
This is generally used for making visible
stationary objects / buildings invisible.
This system utilizes a high efficiency
VIDEO CAMERA ,
COMPUTER PROCESSER ,
IMAGE PROJECTOR .

waves to bend and flow around obstructing objects.
Making a large building invisible so that the park on
the other side can be seen.
