What would you think if I told you that there is technology available today that can make you disappear?
it's the truth. Thanks to optical engineering, it is possible to become invisible to the naked eye.
This is not just a fantasy. It's a reality designed by Invisibility Shield Co. In the UK, which introduced the impressive Invisibility Shield. This 6-foot shield brings a new dimension to the concept of invisibility.

The science of vanishing technology
At the heart of this technology is a precisely designed lens array. Picture this: You're standing behind the shield, and instead of being a prominent figure, the light reflecting off you is cleverly redirected.
This group of vertically oriented lenses scatters light horizontally, causing the image to dissolve into the background. It's like a magic trick, where the magician disappears not with a puff of smoke, but with a whisper of light.

A closer look at the optical geometry of the invisible shield
Now, let's delve deeper into the science. Lenses are not just lenses; They are elongated and convex lenses finely patterned on a polymer sheet. These are not your ordinary magnifying glasses; They are the result of rigorous testing and fine-tuning – perfectly shaped to handle light correctly.
But what about the background? Ah, this is where the magic magnifies. The background light, which is brighter and wider, passes through the shield and is refracted toward the observer. From their perspective, it's as if the background itself has been extended to hide your presence.

Versatility of invisibility shield
However, armor is not just a one-trick pony. It excels against a variety of backgrounds – whether it's lush green foliage, the rough texture of sand, or even the soft expanse of sky. And for those who appreciate fine detail, shields work wonders against horizontal lines, whether painted with the brush of nature or the hand of man.

Rugged design, but not defense
But let's not forget that these shields are not shields. It won't protect you from harm, but it will make you almost invisible. They are built to last, using materials that will stand the test of weather and time.

Who buys invisibility armor?
The company tells us that “generally, we find customers who have previously ordered a small version want to try hiding items on their desks and experiment with materials.
“In terms of larger models, our shields have been used for all sorts of things: paintball, wildlife hunts, pranks, stage magic, creating ‘invisible windows’ and interior screens in apartments.”
