"These groups now know that it works and does so without cameras, batteries, lights or mirrors...It is lightweight and quite inexpensive. Both the U.S. and Canadian military have confirmed that it also works against military IR scopes and Thermal Optics," he said. (


Except if it has cryogenic properties I doubt the veracity of the above. Infrared and Thermal Optics work by picking up heat signatures. As long as you're well above 0° C you would generate heat ( engines, living animals).
Would like to know if they have a better explanation how it averts heat detection.

You're so far off it's not even funny! Carbon dioxide detector will detect what exactly? The carbon dioxide that occurs naturally in the air? Using infrared detectors is the way to detect living beings in hiding because we are warm blooded and heat is visible to infrared.

to sense breathing. No one needs to be told that the conc. of CO2 directly around a breathing human is more than the amount that has mixed with air.

I believe same would apply around vegetation out in the battlefield, hence false negatives, hence your detection fails.
Like Wallie said my dear, its really about heat, living things/engines give off energy.

Below are two pictures to show how far behind Africa is from global trends
First is a comparison between a 5MB drive in the 50's and a 256GB drive from 2011
Second is the new American drones which is an insect spy drone for urban areas, already in production, funded by the US Government. It can be remotely controlled and is equipped with a camera and a microphone. It can land on you, and it may have the potential to take a DNA sample or leave RFID tracking nanotechnology on your skin. It can fly through a
n open window, or it can attach to your clothing until you take it in your home.

News like this just reminds me of how technologically backward Nigeria and even Africa is. The most annoying thing is that we have the potential to make similar advanced tech equipments but we cannot because our leaders that are supposed to support such projects do not have any type of interest in developing the country. They only want to steal and leave office.

Everything is just superficial - when the real war starts, everyone will go back to the conventional way of fighting with boots on the ground...

You don't want your enemies hacking your machines and using them against you, don't believe the hype...

Anyone who did elementary physics should know that light is only invisible from a certain viewpoint, even with cloaking... Change the viewpoint and you'll see everything....

Re: Camouflage Fabric That Can Make Soldiers Invisible by Jakumo(m): 5:54pm On Dec 11, 2012
This amazing technology does exist, but it works not by "bending light", but with thousands of miniaturized video cameras and projectors woven into the very fabric of the camoflague apparel. Images from behind the "cloak" wearer are filmed by the cameras, and simultaneously projected from the front of the wearer, such that the observer sees what is behind the wearer in real time, creating a very convincing illusion that the wearer is invisible.

This technology is used by American illusionist Chris Angel( Mind Freak), who regularly makes cars materialize or disappear at the touch of a remote button. As technology advances, those cameras and projectors will shrink even further in size, and also drop in price, until anyone who wants to vanish from view can purchase that ability over the counter in any clothing store.

The security implications of "invisibility on demand" are truly mind-boggling.

This trechnology is actually inferior to the one employed in the SW of Nigeria, Ijebu, in particular. Have you people never heard of Egbe? Egbe makes one invisible.


BTW, One Ijebu boy who was caught with drugs at Heathrow Airport, jumped up and down after he was arrested, expecting that the act had rendered him invisible. By the time the guards gave him a couple of dirty slaps, he discovered that he was given the wrong Egbe. SMH
