an ambient eco-aware visualization cup as the external surface of the cup is printed with a second layer of heat sensitive ink that is revealed when hot water is poured into it. when hot water is poured in, the image of sea over land appears as a direct representation of the slowly heating waters on our planet.
Real invisibility cloak
I found this video a few years ago on a japanese website. It shows an experimental cloaking device. Can you guess how it works?
Optical Camouflage (Invisible Cloak)
One of the labs in the University of Tokyo uploaded some interesting videos several years ago.
This technology involves neither chroma-keying nor photoshopping but is "quasi-invisibility" using a specific fabric and projector.
Living Glass
With slits cut into a polymer window and elastic shape memory alloy (SMA) wires, Soo-in Yang and David Benjamin have developed a kinetic glass that reacts to environmental conditions. When sensors detect high amounts of carbon dioxide, an electric current is sent to the SMA wires that cause them to contract and open the slits etched in the window. Once equilibrium with the outside air is reached, the electric current subsides and the window resumes its original shape.
