A Japanese scientist has developed a coat (http://www.orange-today.co.uk/news/story/sm_747591.html) which appears to make the wearer invisible. Not exactly predator like special effects but still cool in my eyes.

a couple days ago i read this one - http://www.ananova.com/news/story/sm_747591.html?menu=news (it's exactly the same) - but the part about how the photo was taken and the part about the scientist being in the early stages made me think that the image was heavily faked and the tech is nowhere near to what the photo seems to indicate.

Very cool indeed!

Wonder if the scientist will make portable holes? :P

some nice optical illusion videos:

there's little information there, some of the links have some nice diagrams explaining how to set up the external projectors for their demos.
