The researchers tested their cloak's ability to hide a steel cylinder. They submerged the cylinder in a tank with an ultrasound source on one side and a sensor array on the other, then placed the cylinder inside the cloak and watched it disappear from their sonar.

Voisin kuvitella, että tuollainen materiaali ja kuvio voisi olla sukellusveneisiin ja torpedoihin jne. erittäin tervetullut.

Mahtaako toimia käytännössä? Ettei vain materiaali menisi heti tukkoon levän ja kaiken muun moskan vaikutuksesta.
