Well now this is out in the internet world, can I become invisible?

Maybe from the black helicopters but not from Predators; you just know those bastards have a wavelength detector that would find you...

In all seriousness, I'd be interested to know how it could defeat infra-red detectors on running vehicles, or software that can pick out the color difference of the background.

I may try it when I can get a set for $30 bucks or so from Colemans.
I just recently have shifted all my camo to Flectarn. Seems pretty effective.

If they covered that in my science classes, they must have been using different props...

even if you were able to suppress the IR, hyperspectral imaging would make you stick out like a sore thumb

it can discriminate the difference between white paint and faded white paint, or even subtle shade differences of greens like pine, spruce...

Article says it defeats Army technology, is this hyperspectral imaging an Air Force thing or what? Smile
Next thought, can I get it at Cabelas/Bass Pro, Sportsman Guide, etc.

they show a picture of a snow field, how do we know someone is there?

Same with the video, they kept focused on one spot.

If someone had stepped out and suddenly appeared on thermal then I would be interested.

Am I missing something?

The snowy one with the trees has a tent behind them. You can see it center screen/right.
