A new development in thermal invisibility is changing how researchers think about controlling heat. 🔬

Researchers have developed a 3D thermal invisibility cloak that redirects heat around an object, making it difficult to detect with infrared imaging from multiple angles. The technology could have applications in thermal protection, electronics cooling, and stealth technology.
