Optical Camouflage

Optical camouflage is a technology designed to make objects or people appear nearly invisible by blending them seamlessly into their background. It typically involves using special materials, cameras, and projectors to capture the scene behind the object and display that image onto the object's surface in real time. This creates the illusion that the object is transparent or invisible from certain viewpoints. While still in developmental stages and not perfect, optical camouflage has potential applications in military concealment, advanced textiles, and visual effects, making it a fascinating step toward future invisibility technologies.
