WearTec

A piece of real wearable technology or just a publicity stunt? CBS4 reports
Researchers have published a study in the online edition of the journal ‘Science’ that supposedly describes how to construct a wearable device that can redirect light in any direction rather than reflecting it or casting a shadow. Scientists say that the study “presents a solid case for making invisibility an attainable goal.” If the light is redirected the right way it would give spectators the illusion of the seeing what’s behind the device, making the device (and its wearer) effectively invisible. While such a device does not exist yet, it is estimated that one could be constructed within the next 18 months.
