Abstract
In 2006, scientists at Duke University captured the world´s imagination by announcing they had created an invisibility cloak. It could hide an object only from a particular wavelength in the microwave region, and only when viewed from certain directions, but it sparked waves of research along with countless cracks about boy wizards and Romulan warbirds. You still can´t hide a spaceship, but that hasn??t stopped scientists from coming up with new and strange ways to make small objects undetectable, and the past few months have produced particularly unusual innovations.
