MIT students are devising a way to give humans x-ray vision using a series of signal amplifiers.
Although still in its infancy, it is hoped that this new technology will someday allow soldiers to see through the walls of buildings to check if they are occupied by hostiles before entering or to provide aid to people in urban combat zones.
X-ray vision is possible for Superman, but in the real world, it’s a lot harder to do. However, a couple of guys at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology have found a way to duplicate –- sort of -– Superman’s amazing feats.
