The long nurtured childhood fantasy of human beings to become invisible, just like their favourite magical characters in storybooks and movies like Harry Potter, is soon going to become a reality as a Canadian camouflage design company Hyperstealth Biotechnology Corp. has recently developed a fabric infused with a special technology that can make the wearer invisible.

The latest technology named Quantum Stealth, which is believed to be useful for carrying out military combat-related missions and operations, works by bending the light waves around the wearer thus making him completely invisible, said Guy Cramer, the President/CEO of the British Columbia-based firm Hyperstealth.

The technology infused cloth material can remove visual, infrared (night vision) and thermal signatures as well as the personal shadow of the wearer, claims the company.

The lightweight and inexpensive fabric functions without cameras, batteries, lights and mirrors, according to the firm.

The wonder material has been analyzed by two separate command groups in the US and Canadian Military as well as Federal Emergency Response Team (Counter Terrorism), the company said in a statement.

Established in 1999, HyperStealth specializes in a range of camouflage military uniforms and vehicles.
