It is almost here. A cloak you can use to render yourself invisible.
“A special, multi-layered coating of a substance known as a metamaterial has been developed over the past two decades, enabling electromagnetic radiation of certain specific wavelengths to pass freely around an object.”

Invisibility cloaks are not just possible, but are becoming reality
