Apparel: 2008 to Future

Future: 2010-2012
Is it really possible for one to have the ability to become invisible? A team of scientists at Duke University have made this super hero-like ability become a reality by constructing the first working invisibility cloak. The cloak is made of metamaterials which are blends of man-made composites that exhibit properties not found in nature. An object is surrounded in these metamaterials and assembled in the right order for light waves to pass through the metamaterials and blend around the object, (ex. water flowing undisturbed around a rock). The Invisibility Cloak is just one of many products for the future that is made possible because of technology.
