Engineers Devise Invisibility Shield
Philip Ball

"The idea of a cloak of invisibility that hides objects from view has long been confined to the more improbable reaches of science fiction. But electronic engineers have now come up with a way to make one."
"The concept could find uses in stealth technology and camouflage."
