Invisibility-Illusion Portable Cloaks

The Invisibility Shield Co. Relies on Science

— April 2, 2024 — Art & Design
The Invisibility Shield Co. is a company based in London and it turns what was once impossible into a real-life product. The working Invisibility Shield is designed using a screen that bends light and cloaks around the user from an angle. The portable shield works like a suit that one can bring with them.

Notably, this marks the 2.0 version of the shield, and this time around it is made using a curved sheet of premium polycarbonate that is held in place using a frame. This makes the process discreet in a special lens along the surface. The shield bounces light around the object and behind the screen in order to create a distorted and illusioned visual for observers looking directly at it.
