Cloaking Technology

Cloaking technology refers to methods that make objects or people less visible or invisible to detection systems, such as radar, cameras, or the eye. It often involves manipulating light, sound, or electromagnetic waves to redirect or absorb signals, creating a "invisibility" effect. For example, some cloaking devices use advanced materials called metamaterials to bend electromagnetic waves around an object, making it appear unseen. While true invisibility remains largely experimental, cloaking technology has potential applications in military stealth, privacy, and secure communications by reducing detectability without outright revealing the object’s presence.
