New 'invisibility cloak' is remarkably effective

Known as Quantum Stealth, the new invisibility cloak takes the form of a thin, inexpensive material that makes objects vanish from sight even though the background is still visible.
The brainchild of Canadian camouflage design company Hyperstealth Biotechnology, the new material can conceal the presence of entire vehicles and could prove invaluable on the battlefield.
It even works for non-visible wavelengths from mid- and near-ultraviolet to the infrared.

Needs some work. It has enough flaws that make it detectable.

I didn’t catch whether you can see through it from the “back” side?

I’ll take 90% “not immediately obvious” rather than wait for “not detectable”.

It’s not a hoax; this technology has been developing for a couple decades or so. But it’s not a ‘cloaking device’ like in Star Trek. It uses micro etching to bend light selectively. The ‘cloak’ is a semi-cylindrical sheet which keeps the background in focus but redirects light away from what is directly behind it.

No ship that small could have a cloaking device.

OK, If it can, cloaking “Thermal” is a huge deal.
