Does this look real to you?

With the way things are, it looks legit to me. Although I wouldn't call that complete invisibility but I'd call it a beta Cloak of Transparency.

My vote is that it's real... but it's still not as good as it needs to be (it's translucency I mean)

Nope. Fake. Mainly because it was reported by "Interfax news".

It doesn't make sense to me. Bending light is one thing, but to control the angles so that you are seeing what is directly behind the object seems impossibly complicated.

We fear what we don't understand.... or in some cases don't believe. You never know where the world is going these days. I mean... just a year ago they discovered in Japan the PlayStation 3.... I mean... come on..

LOL jk.

i like your enthusiasm A+

It's about time someone made something like this.

This will help me walk behind some people whilst not being seen.

Not that I stalk people or anything, I just think it would be useful.

Are you talking about the picture? If so, I say, "No." The article states that only static objects can be made invisible at this time.

It could be plausible, but as I scrolled down and read some of the older headlines, my scepticism increased.

Wonder if it's anything like like http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/2777111.stm which was more of a camera trick.
