    Is this fottage not just a projection. When it gets to the cube and spehere it does convince me otherwise.

    Saw pics of that coat before. Never saw the video though! That was really interesting and to a great remix of the MGS theme song! Couldn't explain it though:confused:

    Did find this news story though

    Looks cool, apparently it's called active camouflage, and that guy has an LCD in his jacket and there's a projector inside, with a camera on the opposite side. I think these are the same people. It'd be interesting to see how much electonics and wiring there is under it.

    yeh but that is bogus, look at the cube part, when he puts it infront of his face it doesn't show his face, it shows the behind part, which makes no sense since it only makes what is in between the two layers invisible in the current technology.

    But the actually technology is quite interesting,

    Actually, I've heard rumours of this effect being achieved passively using optical fibers to simply reroute light.

    In the video it seems pretty clear that it's a blue screen effect (or a blue coat/cube effect).
