Researchers have developed an invisibility cloak out of silk that can bend certain types of light around solid objects.
While it doesn't work for visible light yet the technology could be used in medicine for purposes such as to cloak organs within the body duing the use of scans to help doctors see behind them.At the moment the cloak only works for light outside the visible spectrum, in the terahertz band between radio and infrared. But its developers, at Boston University and Tufts University, believe that it could be made to work at far smaller wavelengths, possibly even including visible light, according to Discovery News.
