I love the way James spontaneously reacts to the "cool factor" of his scientific demonstrations. Infectious enthusiasm makes his channel the success it is.
He should make a _"Whwhoa!"_ compilation
You do realize he’s just acting. Wouldn’t be the first time he’s run these experiments.
@@nuancesoffate I too am a teacher. Adding spontaneous reaction reinforces class enthusiasm for the subject matter. James is simply a great instructor. His pedagogy includes a genuine wow reaction. It keeps the subject matter fun!
@@srb20012001 Understood. 👍
not really spontaneous as the vid is not made spontaneously but yeah
Nothing beats my method when I was a child. Covering my eyes and saying ' Can't see me' worked every time.
I saw a little kid doing this during a hiding game. It was soooo cute. He thought no one could find him, he was laying in front of us face down and trying to be silent.
Jamie Cena
@@SRose-vp6ew cute indeed (⁀ᗢ⁀)
Or using the "Invisibility Glasses" like in the movie "Big Daddy" with Adam Sandler.
That works very effectively if you need to hide from the Ravenous Bugblatter Beast of Traal.
Magicians use a lot of these principles. “Black Art” is the term used to describe using a black object and using a black background to camouflage into the background. Great presentation with that illusion and the flock sheet clothing! I have heard of lenses being used in magic too. I have yet to see a more practical use or a larger variation of the Rochester lens cloak. I also have yet to see use of the same refractive indexing. Yet the possibilities abound!
this is so cool
It's funny that the art of vanishing objects is called "black art". Very accurate 😆
🇵🇭😲🧐 Oh, "Black art"!
🤔 I almost misread and thought of it as "Black magic" or "Dark art" or some sort of a combination of both. ✌🏼😅
wait, it doesn't mean using black people for experiments?
Have you ever discussed how bin Laden's band of booze swilling, lap dancer fancying, 'Islamic extremist' CIA assets achieved the impossible:
"Stage 2 (1.75 to 4.0 seconds): gravitational acceleration (free fall)"
-- NIST FAQ on WTC 7
In the first method, it is important that the background contains features in the same direction as the spreading of light. For example, the garage door had horizontal stripes.
Consistent background. 👍
He did explain that.
@@mr.spinoza Sort of. He showed the example with the sideways broom, but then didn't follow up with any discussion of the types of backgrounds for which that technique would work effectively.
it can still make you invisible it just will also distort the background, but you are still not visible behind it. technically any wall does this.
The fifth method is to capture the background using a camera, and then displaying in on the front end of the object to match the background. Not simple or easy, but can be done. Only works for a narrow viewing angle, though. There have been some military experiments.
A sixth is to cover yourself with a cloak that can display all colors at a wide range of intensities with hundreds or thousands of "pixels", and then have some form of wide-angle camera that captures the colors, patterns and light intensity of the surroundings, and displaying some rough average of that on the cloak. Like a chameleon.
another options would be to cover yourself in mirrors, depends on the surroundings but a plane covered in mirrors or a shed in the woods will be pretty much unregognizeable
@@silasschramm I think that might work for the shed, but the problem with the plane is that (viewed from beneath) it would reflect the ground, which doesn't usually blend well against the backdrop of the sky.
@@silasschramm Another problem with mirrors is that depending on the angle it would reflect the sun, making it not only visible but bright.
@@j.manzueta188 yeah and it also reflects the person viewing it, its not a perfect solution
the camera one is not limited to a shallow angle at all if you use motion/eye tracking.
First way: Just grow old like me. As the years progress I become more and more invisible to everyone around me such as in supermarkets. I am now noticed by no one.
I aspire to be like this person
Confirmed.
As the years progress your hair also becomes whiter and whiter until it becomes almost transparent, that's when you know the skin is next and soon you're invisible.
Science.
Wear a leather waistcoat with nothing underneath.
....and get divorced so you will always walk alone. Others will be sure not to notice you.
@@-Cece at times, I find that a benefit. But on the whole, not so much. Being relevant to others, (as a single person over 50), is surprisingly challenging sometimes.
Main problem with being invisible is that you'd be blind. If light is passing through you or being bent around you, it's not getting to your eyes.
Trust me you can still see. It’s an illusion
3:47 you can't change your own refractive index...
The invisible man: am I invisible to you?
Would love to see a follow up on this discussing cloaking meta materials. Works similar to the second method of invisibility shown here, but with a single material instead of four separate lenses
yes! that sounds fascinating
Does it even exist?
@@westonding8953 It doesn't exist in a form that works well. Small scale models have been made that work over a very narrow band of frequencies, if it is designed for visible light, it works only for the one color it designed for. If there is white light, then there will be rainbow fringes around the invisibility device.
They first got the technology _"working"_ at a single microwave frequency decades ago. That got a bunch of military research money as military radar often uses microwave frequencies.
Problem #1: Many military radar units can be tuned over a wide range of frequencies, so they can find a frequency that isn't being jammed by the enemy.
Problem #2: the invisibility devices can be made as cylinders or as complete spheres. It doesn't work for any other shapes.
Problem #3: an invisibility shield that hides a region that is 1 meter wide needs to be about 1 meter thick all the way around the object. If the inner diameter is 1 meter, the outer diameter needs to be about 3 meters.
Problem #4: the meta-materials used tend to be heavy. A person could not lift a shield large enough to hide a person.
Problem #5: any manufacturing defects will be highly visible.
So you can hide small things from someone that uses only one color of light or only one radar frequency.
@@hamjudo Cool stuff! Meta materials sound amazing. But on closer look visible light goes through glass but UV light does not because the molecules in the glass match frequencies of UV rays; but they do let in X-rays. If we can find a substance that absorbs all the visible frequencies emitted by humans and their clothing but lets the background light through, that would be an interesting shield. Sounds very unfeasible though.
@@westonding8953 much of it is still theoretical but there are a wide range of different unique properties currently being tested. Negative refractive index and how you go about making a material with it is wild.
I love the demonstration with the lenses and using the lines to demonstrate where the light beams focus to a point and where it is brought back to parallel.
Can I suggest colour coding the rays so that it is easier to visualize where the image is inverted and where it is brought back to normal orientation? Something like the top ray being red and the bottom being blue? This way where the image is inverted the red ray will be beneath the blue ray.
I like the additional blank time at the end, to bypass the stupid end-of-video ads, for those of us who like to go back a few seconds at the end of replay parts without having to wait for the ad to finish to rewatch. Thank you for that!
I love your videos. They are exciting and fun, but they also teach everybody things also. Keep up the good content!
Totaly agree ! 👍🙂👏
Guy: *Testing Physics in Black Clothes.*
FBI: *We don't do that here **4:24**.*
The real way to become invisible is this video's sponsor NordVPN.
I loved the exposition of the different ways we know to make something invisible. Great work💪🏿
At night, towns in war time England used to turn out all lights, so that plains flying above had difficulty seeing their target.
Thanks for this video. It was really interesting. It would be cool if you explored some of the ways the militaries all over the world tried things like this to hide tanks during the cold war, Vietnam war and wwII. Thanks again.
BTW I emailed you last week with a question. ~ Keith Brown
Me encanta ver los experimentos que realizan. Excelente trabajo 👍🏼, felicitaciones y saludos desde México 🇲🇽
Your name sounds cool to say
What about if you used 2 invisibility shields. One in a vertical position and the other in the horizontal position but at a fixed distance behind the front one?
3:15 Action Lab : Ninja stories :D
Thanks for all the great content. Could you do a video on the science of meta materials, terahertz waves and refractive index?
For the Rochester cloak,make the tiny focal point into a straight parallel beam using another lens,then you can be invisible for a larger area
I am curious to see what happens to the laser when you have a vertical screen behind the horizontal screen.
A red square 🟥
You will roughly get the same dot ( of the laser's image) almost back . The perfection shall depend upon the intensity of both the screen and the distance between them.
@@anish_3.141 I don't think so. Remember. The sheet spreads the light along an axis, so it should spread the line across the whole sheet.
And the next way to make it invisible is to gouge out your eyes 2:46
XDDDDD
I don't know how but in the morning, I was thinking about exact same topic ie. different way to make us invisible by physics and in evening I got your video
This feels really great😊
Sad ninja- 3:21
TAL: How to make yourself invisible.
Robbers: thank you so much 👍
This must be one of the best Action Labs videos ever! :)
When dads go to get milk:
I would like to see this used as cammoflage in different lighting conditions and natural as well as urban environments, must be super effective at night. Also how will this look in night vision and thermal?
Assuming you’re talking about the black material, it’s very expensive and has no properties that will hide thermal information. So far it’s primary use has been in art installations and elsewhere.
The first thing is pretty cool
Invisibility shield
Can you add “Whatever I did for 4 years in high school” to this list - it worked exceptionally well!
How to be invisible:
Step one: become John cena
You videos are really amazing, keep it up man..
Jee
Imagine shooting the world's brightest torchlight to an invisible shield
To be honest, they worked better than I expected.
There is also the possibility of having a LED-Screen in front and a camera on the back and make a computer light the LEDs as perfectly as it can to match the imagine on the back... they have made buildings "invisible" like this (under quotes, you still see it as its not even close to good enough, but you can kinda "see through")
You forgot to include using angled mirrors to make things invisible. Like the production box used in magic tricks!
angled mirrors is similar to angled lenses, it's getting a "blind spot" in the path of the light
Yes. The mirrors have to be angled to give the illusion that the reflected image is the inside of the box.
Wow! Great video as always. Excellent narration and your topics are always enjoyable, entertaining and interesting.
Your video is amazing as always!
The first one makes me wonder what having a full yard privacy fence made out of the material would be like.
Woah
Wish I had him as a science teacher in school
Someone get this man a invisiblity potion....
This guy is an alien who is trying to give hints to humanity about how to create the next gen technology.
A couple more methods off the top of my head: Become a Shaolin monk (eg. David Carradine in "Kung Fu") or increase your mass until you form a gravitational lens and bend photons around yourself.
...since you went there...learn the Drax system...stand so perfectly still no one will notice you.
There's another method: project an image of the background on to the object you're trying to hide.
That's basically method 3 right? Paint the object the same as it's background?
@@andrewperez5190 Not exactly. In this method you use a camera and a projector. The military actually looked in to using this for tanks. Also unlike method#3 this can adapt with the suroundings.
The first one at a large scale was super interesting, although we have already seen the smaller scale video on your channel.
I love your videos. Explanations are simple and easy!
*Is call lenticular, not invisibility shield*
Coooool
3:49 -- My 3-year-old son learned that he could never change his own refractive index and began to cry.
I like to translate these kinda of tricks in 3D rendering engine inside 3ds Max for example I did the infinity mirror room It was very fun project!
I got one and it comes natural to me.😌
Lmao
no
An octopus constantly changes it's appearance to blend in and become invisible. So does a cuttlefish. They are masters of invisibility. We can learn a lot from these creatures. 🐙😊❤️
chameleon
I feel like in war people might try to make the arenas blurry so invisible layers will be more hidden
”Let me say the magic words. Bippety, boppety, boop!”
This dude never disappoints with his content
Another method: have a screen/projector on the front of the object that sends an image of what's behind it. Then, when you look at the object, it looks like what's behind it.
This type of technique was tried with planes that had lights on the underside so that they would appear closer to the brightness & color of the sky.
I have seen it also in Mission Impossible
Ghost Protocol, the hallway scene
Major limitation is that you need to know where the viewers are, if you just project what's behind the object it'll look like a screen with an image on it. Especially up close where perspective is more prevalent. Knowing where the viewer is you can distort the image to give it the desired perspective to match that of the viewers. This also means it'll only work with one area of viewing, can't have different viewers at different angles
cool and fun to see the black clothes you made with my help, from far away :)
Great video! We are getting closer with metamaterial!
When God want to favour you he won't come down from heaven to do that but he will send someone who is 100% ready to help and all thanks to Bitcoin 💯💯💖
Investing in bitcoin is the best gift ever you can give yourself at this point in time especially when you have a
good and honest trader
I think I am blessed because if not I wouldn't have
met someone who is as spectacular as expert Mrs victory Anderson
I think that she is the best broker I ever seen
Mrs victory Anderson is obviously the best, I
invested $13,000 and she made profit of $128,000 for me just in 15days
Her success story is every where
Would love to see someone bring the invisibile shield to a laser tag arena
Can you speak about unclassified invisibility cloak technology researched or implemented by the military?
has to be one of the funniest titles ever made. it makes it even funnier that it it true.
That first method is the reason why the shield itself has a slightly darker hue than the area behind it actually does.
If we ever do achieve invisibility it will be by bending light.
Introverts:" That's a great suggestion right there, makes us invisible like no problem "
Ah!! Love the way you show invisibility at the end of the video! maybe you're there, somewhere, wearing that super black suit. Cool! :)
The last method is how fluorocarbon fishing line works. It has a similar refractive index as water, so the fish can't see the line.
Your experiments are wonderful and exciting
This is crazy. I literally had a dream about this material last night.
I feel like you were standing there in the black suit at the end
Next week: "why you can see stealth planes"
Disguise still kinda works if you know the situation you're gonna be in. Not completely invisible, but less noticeable
I would be interested to see what camouflage pattern looks like behind the invisibility shield
Imagine having a shower with those glass doors but the glass is the invisibility shield
Reminded me of some monitor "bezel-free kit" for triple monitors setup, which is to hide monitor bezels between monitors.
I need one of those invisibly shields to hide from my boss at work LOL
Can we use it on the battlefield? Cover a tank with this panels or make shooting positions for troops kind of invisible?
Putting invisibility shields in your windows would add a lot of privacy
Those last 8-10 seconds of black made me think you were gonna pop out again like a ninja 🤣
So I just need to say Bippity Boppity Boop and I can turn invisible!
Wow! Yours is the cleanest light distortion screen I have ever seen!
One other way to do it that I think the US military was looking into at one point would be to design a wearable suit that is made up of tiny screens and cameras. The cameras would record what is on the opposite side of the object, and the screen would display that video feed of what is behind the object. As you make the screens and cameras smaller and smaller, you would essentially have a huge network of screens showing what is behind the object from conceivably every angle. That would render the object essentially invisible.
Damn, I actually thought of this when I was 14, nice to see that other people also think that's a valid way
2:41 thanks for teaching me these magical words
Now I'll surprise everyone surrounding me
Should try to combine all of these techniques, honestly.
His videos are unintentionally or intentionally funny 😆
I have seen this material you produced previously. Is the shield you first exhibited readily available to buy? Where is it obtained from, please? In darkness the blackest material and a background could be the most effective concealment. In urban settings there is nothing better than nobody about to see, lol. Good show NEway.
This gives a whole new meaning to Jone cina's "u can't see me"
d&d rogues when they roll a nat 20 stealth check
"There's our wacky neighbor again", "What's he doing now?", "He's walking around all dressed in black".
This was a great video thank you
this and Kyle Hill on the same day 💀
I realize you have a Kickstarter link but where did you buy your panel?
Thanks. Can’t wait to use these at school !
I did not know Ryan Gosling was into invisibility
i enjoyed this very much thanks for being smart!
Excellent teacher... 👏
New subscriber!
Best thing about this is you don't have to remove your armor to be invisible.
Everybody gangsta until someone goes to the sides of the invisible shield
Very well explained ❤️
