I got an idea, since it hides vertical lines, try wearing a vertical striped body suit (black & white stripes going up & down) & a mask to COMPLETELY become invisible behind it. I bet you'll have even better results with someone wearing it behind it.
I worked in a plastics plant for over 22 years. I would like to make a suggestion. Rather than plexiglass, or polycarbonates, use Lexan much more durable. Same material used to make power meter covers.
Lexan is a polycarbonate sheet it is just the brand name, I would suggest using a sheet with a plastic protective covering so it can bend with it, or if you only have one with a paper covering available peel it before you apply heat, you have to be extremely careful not to scratch it but the end result is worth it.
So if he gets into a womans shower, no one would notice it? I say your friend wields a very abusable power, we need means to control it and keep him accountable for any invasion on anybody's privacy that he can commit
@@trevor3050 I propose that until we could develop better means to keep him in check, we have to restrict him from approaching any female of any age closer than 25 meters. If he fails to comply with this restriction, we will have to sentence him to a house arrest, with a tracking bracelet and everything.
@@pugsofsmallstreet5858 Incorrect. They would be very cool. That's enough reason for them to exist. Plus imagine a stealth jet invisible to radar and your sight. That could allow it to fly lower without being seen and the lower you are to the ground the harder it is for radar to see you. Although, they'd still make noise.
Being a 53yo retired US Army female individually carrying 2 different MOS', being a selected participant in/with several other (critical) MOS' & having spent 11mo in Tikrit, Iraq w/ a Company's TOC (Tactical Operations Command), I (fortunately) had the finest of instructors w/ ea opportunity. Your instruction commentary reminded me of them. Although I have absolutely zero interest in recreating this shield, I also have absolutely zero doubt that I easily could, solely based on this, your verbal & visual instruction. Trust me, we know skill when we see it. Just wondered how long it took (if yet) that you were G.O.V. "approached". 😁 Out-Freaking-Standing!
It might be a cool idea to try making the edge of the shield wavy, jagged, irregular, or otherwise not just a straight rectangle. The straight edge really stands out to the edge-detection in human sight. So breaking up that edge with something should make it harder to see.
Your eyes are much more sensitive to luminance changes than color changes, at 100 yards I think you will be hard pressed to pick him out. I agree the edge is abrupt, but I think the effect will not be as good if you make the edges irregular because the tiny lenses will be broken.
@@eformance What do you mean about the lenses being broken? With this kind of lens, as far as I know, a small piece of it should work as well as a whole sheet. The sheets shouldn't need to be intact. The lens effect depends only on the fine ridge structures in a small local area, unlike with a traditional glass lens. Or did you mean something else?
@@delphicdescant The lenses are long columns of half cylinders, there is some light conducted vertically through the lenses in the shield to help average out the luminance of the projected image. If you cut the edges into a sawtooth pattern I think the effectiveness of the lenses will be reduced and you will see artifacts in the projected image. This is my hypothesis, the only way to know is to try it.
Dude, at first I was like “dang that would be really cool for car windows” then I realized that it’s likely double sided and you wouldn’t be able to see people on the road...

I wish I had seen this last year before graduation. This could have be my required science project with script script and all. No more volcano for the 3rd year in a row.
This shield should also work for masking infrared detection. As long as the shield remains at ambient temperature (otherwise the shield itself will be visible). You should be able to confirm with a cheap thermal imaging scope or monocular.
@@2degucitas not sure about glass, but most plexiglass/ polycarbonate & i think even lexan will absorb and/or diffuse IR to the point that you can't see an IR image behind it unless a hot object is directly touching it for a period of time.
The efficacy of the shield seems to depend greatly on your location relative to the focal point. Have you figured out what the optimum focal point is behind the shield?
I use hot water to bend plastic materials is a window cleaner I've made buckets on my belt for 50 years before someone patented bucket on a belt and act like they were the first one to come out with it but like I said I use hot water not heat heat makes it brittle water just allows it to warm up and bends in the shapes you want it to
They use a suit that consist of tiny screens and cameras to project what's behind the user front every angle. The cameras also serve to give 360° vision to the wearer.
Damn dude, you spent the first half of the video making an actual plexiglass riot shield because of the purchasing limitations. Now That’s true dedication.
Once again... "Everything Old is New Again". Fifty years ago, my doctor's office had windows between the exam room, and the nurses station, that worked like this "invisibility shield". I thought that glass was amazing, when I was a child waiting to get the dreaded, "polio shot." Since there were windows on the opposite wall, you could detect the changes in illumination when someone stood in front of the window, but you could not actually see them. True Stealth has refined that "privacy window" idea quite a bit. As for "riot shields" being restricted items; it is the perfect example of the Public Sector vs Private Sector paranoia, separating our paranoid government from the governed. There is only one boat folks, and we all are in it. Very nice, thanks for the video!

Not LED screens. But LCD screens have multiple sheets inside. I've been playing with this invisiblity stuff with LCD screens for almost 20 years. Nothing new.
When I rented a U-haul it said that my rental comes with a free dolly to use. I kept the dolly because it said it was free. They tried to argue it but in the end they had to let me keep it based on what the paperwork said.
TH-cam is a year late in showing me this, but I just wanted to point out that if you need a vacuum chamber for an object like this, a vacuum bag works just as well as a vacuum chamber. It can have the added benefit of pressing the pieces together firmer... Not just evacuating the air
Like all independent inventors they lack the rapid prototyping capability of a US Military Contractor. This is old hat fresnel lensing. Even Quantum Cloaking is on its 3rd gen. Nobody really seems to care.
Randomn, what are your thoughts on carefully inserting a flat tube between the lens and the plexiglass (after you sealed it around the bottom, left side and right side) and then filling the tube with liquid plexiglass, while slowly pulling out the tube. Of course, leaving no bubbles. Would this add additional stealth by eliminating the distortions?
Hey homie, @ 2:25 this is one of the easiest ways to cut a limb off or experience sudden bloody death. Never pull a piece of stock through a table saw from the opposite side, only push it through. If it binds while you're pulling it through, it will get launched away from you, but faster than you can react. If it gets launched, you most likely won't be able to let go of the lumber until you're already on the spinning blade. Instead: use a roller stand or several while the saw is on it's own stand if you don't have space/money for a proper saw table or a second set of hands helping. Also, use a push stick so that your hands dont have to come close to the blade. I work with table saws all the time and have seen what happens when people aren't religiously careful with them. I hope you've wisened up a bit, table saws and angle grinders are the most dangerous tools out of the common everyday tools.
First and foremost...I appreciate viewing the superb camera quality and your time taken to edit and produce this quality video. My theory and thoughts without testing...what if you highly polished, just one side (prob outside concaved), with a sand blaster with a walnut medium?..I wonder if that would provide a smoother finish that would reflect the surroundings, as a mirror but more like a water reflection to serve more of a "cloak"?
They have them already. They have rearward facing cameras, that projects what is behind the wearer, onto the from of this hooded, parka-like garment. I saw this in Pop. Science a decade ago, so by now it is probably perfected.
@@TexasTrey there's a lot of prototypes from ten years ago that have been abandoned. Sometimes there's not enough funding, sometimes it turns out to be non-viable in real life use cases, sometimes it just fizzles out.
If you look @19:25 on, you can see what's behind the shield on the table. He set it so the lines go horizontally, so you can see some of the horizontal bars behind the shield. If his arms were spread out while behind it, you'd be able to see them (somewhat). As long as he sits or stand/squats vertically you won't be able to see him. So, it SEEMS to work the same way from the other side as well.
Regarding optical bonding. You don't need a vacuum chamber, you could use a vacuum bag and pump. The surfaces you're working with should be smooth enough to not pose any significant bubble-problems vacuumbagging. As for adhesive, weld-on #4 IIRC is optically clear, it's actually used to glue / "weld" acrylic joints for optically clear, invisible seams for aquarium tanks etc. It flows incredibly lightly.
To improve the bond between the lens and shield you could try UV curing Optical Adhesive + vacuum bagged to press it all together then UV lamp to set the glue.
Random tip, you don’t need to sand plastic edges, I use a nice edge of a tin sheet to shave it, you can use the back of a Stanley knife blade. Hold roughly on a 45 degree angle back towards yourself and drag it back to you

Hi! Really cool! I was wondering what would happen if you were to stack the lenticular sheets 15° each layer until you made a complete 360°? Would this work better by splitting the light in many ways?
Unfortunately not, this uses the space in-between the user and the shield as the refraction zone you would see. in other words you still see the space behind, it's just distorted to the sides. Using a 360° would just show a barcode version of you top down. Sorry to disappoint.
The eye, the subject, and the enlarged lenticular lenses are very well drawn. However, the arrows on the light rays are pointing in the wrong direction. I was a Physics and Math double-major in college and I also took art and photography classes. I'm not an expert, but more knowledgeable than the average Joe/Jane on these topics. Also, he should have said "refracted" instead of "reflected".
@@frederickevans4113 Isn't there a reflection after a certain critical angle? Maybe that's also an aspect of the design, to maximize reflectivity? I'm in mechanical so don't know as much. but yeah it could be he got the basic idea from somewhere else, like a paper. and then he got his hands dirty on an idea he liked.
@@nipunkothare Optical fiber (fibre) works that way. The strands of glass fiber are so thin that once light is introduced at one end (at 90° to the flat, polished end), the angle of incidence at which the light bounces along the "walls" of the fiber down its length is always shallow enough to reflect internally instead of exiting the fiber through the side. IIRC the technical term is "Total Internal Refraction". I think he just had a "brain fart" or two. It is easy to confuse the direction someone is looking vs. the direction in which light actually travels to be observed by the eye or 📷. We all have the occasional "brain fart", sometimes even more frequently in front of an audience (stress and all).
Be interesting to see what happens if external light strikes it. (I've been using lenticular sheets for years to build stereoscopic images, but never thought of this application. I have some large sheets in the garage... think I'll experiment!)
I'm sure I'm not the first person to say this, but when I first learned about these I was like, "What about the floating fuzzy rectangle? Isn't that a little suspicious?"
In a quiet environment, with enough time to process the existence of a clear plastic rectangle... then yes it would be suspicious. In the middle of a riot or a war zone with a million other things to pay attention to, this would definitely be looked right past.
When he was standing behind the shield next to the truck he totally blended in....enough to fool some deer (for hunting) or a bear (for personal protection). Thats what its for. Do you always just blurt out the first thought you have or do you ever take time to consider things more thoroughly?

This shield should also work for masking infrared detection. As long as the shield remains at ambient temperature (otherwise the shield itself will be visible). You should be able to confirm with a cheap thermal imaging scope or monocular.
Wait.. can't you see heat with infrared through windows?
@@2degucitas not sure about glass, but most plexiglass/ polycarbonate & i think even lexan will absorb and/or diffuse IR to the point that you can't see an IR image behind it unless a hot object is directly touching it for a period of time.
The efficacy of the shield seems to depend greatly on your location relative to the focal point. Have you figured out what the optimum focal point is behind the shield?

Damn dude, you spent the first half of the video making an actual plexiglass riot shield because of the purchasing limitations. Now That’s true dedication.
Once again... "Everything Old is New Again". Fifty years ago, my doctor's office had windows between the exam room, and the nurses station, that worked like this "invisibility shield". I thought that glass was amazing, when I was a child waiting to get the dreaded, "polio shot." Since there were windows on the opposite wall, you could detect the changes in illumination when someone stood in front of the window, but you could not actually see them. True Stealth has refined that "privacy window" idea quite a bit. As for "riot shields" being restricted items; it is the perfect example of the Public Sector vs Private Sector paranoia, separating our paranoid government from the governed. There is only one boat folks, and we all are in it. Very nice, thanks for the video!

Build one a little bit wider that can conceal a person sitting in a little chair as a ground blind, or make it so you can attach it to the bottom of a tree stand.
Seriously you need to start selling these if you can to the hunting market as a hunting blind.

U know he didn't invent this at all right? He even said so at the start
Invisibility Shield: 50% at most generous
Smudgy Shield: EFFIN NAILED THAT ISH
Like all independent inventors they lack the rapid prototyping capability of a US Military Contractor. This is old hat fresnel lensing. Even Quantum Cloaking is on its 3rd gen. Nobody really seems to care.
Crazy to think how advanced invisibility will be in the future. This guys like a pioneer of future invisibility
Randomn, what are your thoughts on carefully inserting a flat tube between the lens and the plexiglass (after you sealed it around the bottom, left side and right side) and then filling the tube with liquid plexiglass, while slowly pulling out the tube. Of course, leaving no bubbles. Would this add additional stealth by eliminating the distortions?
Very heavy though, don't you think?
Awesome. I thought the military only had this technology. Now i can make one, thanks young man.

Hey homie, @ 2:25 this is one of the easiest ways to cut a limb off or experience sudden bloody death. Never pull a piece of stock through a table saw from the opposite side, only push it through. If it binds while you're pulling it through, it will get launched away from you, but faster than you can react. If it gets launched, you most likely won't be able to let go of the lumber until you're already on the spinning blade.
Instead: use a roller stand or several while the saw is on it's own stand if you don't have space/money for a proper saw table or a second set of hands helping. Also, use a push stick so that your hands dont have to come close to the blade.
I work with table saws all the time and have seen what happens when people aren't religiously careful with them. I hope you've wisened up a bit, table saws and angle grinders are the most dangerous tools out of the common everyday tools.

@@preflyt9124 fresnel lens
First and foremost...I appreciate viewing the superb camera quality and your time taken to edit and produce this quality video. My theory and thoughts without testing...what if you highly polished, just one side (prob outside concaved), with a sand blaster with a walnut medium?..I wonder if that would provide a smoother finish that would reflect the surroundings, as a mirror but more like a water reflection to serve more of a "cloak"?
The lenticular lenses are a textured finish, effectively a cylinder sliced in half and layed next to each other so that couldn't work unfortunately.
This is freaking amazing! Now we just need a more malleable version of those lenses, and we can have invisibility cloaks!
@Billy William or build armour.
Pretty sure the curved shape helps the effect
They have them already. They have rearward facing cameras, that projects what is behind the wearer, onto the from of this hooded, parka-like garment. I saw this in Pop. Science a decade ago, so by now it is probably perfected.
@@TexasTrey there's a lot of prototypes from ten years ago that have been abandoned. Sometimes there's not enough funding, sometimes it turns out to be non-viable in real life use cases, sometimes it just fizzles out.

I'm curious what you see when looking through the shield from your side. Can you show us?
Probably a pretty similar horizontal stripyness
he did, that is the most important observation, watch again the video.
@@whowhowhowhowhowho8139 Throw in a time stamp for that scene and I will take a look. Otherwise, I think you are full of beans!
@@tribulationprepper787 check it out at 19:48, it looks the same from both sides.
If you look @19:25 on, you can see what's behind the shield on the table. He set it so the lines go horizontally, so you can see some of the horizontal bars behind the shield. If his arms were spread out while behind it, you'd be able to see them (somewhat). As long as he sits or stand/squats vertically you won't be able to see him. So, it SEEMS to work the same way from the other side as well.
Regarding optical bonding. You don't need a vacuum chamber, you could use a vacuum bag and pump. The surfaces you're working with should be smooth enough to not pose any significant bubble-problems vacuumbagging.
As for adhesive, weld-on #4 IIRC is optically clear, it's actually used to glue / "weld" acrylic joints for optically clear, invisible seams for aquarium tanks etc. It flows incredibly lightly.
Dude that shield is crazy! Keep up the good work

Hi! Really cool! I was wondering what would happen if you were to stack the lenticular sheets 15° each layer until you made a complete 360°? Would this work better by splitting the light in many ways?
Unfortunately not, this uses the space in-between the user and the shield as the refraction zone you would see. in other words you still see the space behind, it's just distorted to the sides. Using a 360° would just show a barcode version of you top down. Sorry to disappoint.
Now that you have that all set up you can just make a bunch more and sell them online! I'll be first in line to buy one. 😀

@@kennethpaulmullinix thank you lol
can we take some time to appreciate that really good drawing of an eye
The eye, the subject, and the enlarged lenticular lenses are very well drawn. However, the arrows on the light rays are pointing in the wrong direction. I was a Physics and Math double-major in college and I also took art and photography classes. I'm not an expert, but more knowledgeable than the average Joe/Jane on these topics.
Also, he should have said "refracted" instead of "reflected".
@@frederickevans4113 Isn't there a reflection after a certain critical angle? Maybe that's also an aspect of the design, to maximize reflectivity?
I'm in mechanical so don't know as much. but yeah it could be he got the basic idea from somewhere else, like a paper. and then he got his hands dirty on an idea he liked.
@@nipunkothare Optical fiber (fibre) works that way. The strands of glass fiber are so thin that once light is introduced at one end (at 90° to the flat, polished end), the angle of incidence at which the light bounces along the "walls" of the fiber down its length is always shallow enough to reflect internally instead of exiting the fiber through the side. IIRC the technical term is "Total Internal Refraction".
I think he just had a "brain fart" or two. It is easy to confuse the direction someone is looking vs. the direction in which light actually travels to be observed by the eye or 📷.
We all have the occasional "brain fart", sometimes even more frequently in front of an audience (stress and all).
Be interesting to see what happens if external light strikes it. (I've been using lenticular sheets for years to build stereoscopic images, but never thought of this application. I have some large sheets in the garage... think I'll experiment!)
I'm sure I'm not the first person to say this, but when I first learned about these I was like, "What about the floating fuzzy rectangle? Isn't that a little suspicious?"
That and the funky human/plastic smell.
In a quiet environment, with enough time to process the existence of a clear plastic rectangle... then yes it would be suspicious.
In the middle of a riot or a war zone with a million other things to pay attention to, this would definitely be looked right past.
Plus people may think it’s just a mark in the plastic
When he was standing behind the shield next to the truck he totally blended in....enough to fool some deer (for hunting) or a bear (for personal protection). Thats what its for. Do you always just blurt out the first thought you have or do you ever take time to consider things more thoroughly?
