Cloaking devices, while currently theoretical, raise questions about visibility for the user. If a cloaking device bends light away, it could prevent light from entering the user's eyes, potentially impairing vision. The discussion explores whether alternative vision methods, like infrared, could allow a cloaked individual to see their surroundings. The inquiry highlights the need for a deeper understanding of the science behind invisibility technology. Overall, the feasibility of seeing while using a cloaking device remains uncertain.

Hello, Chitose here

It's been a while since last time I post my question.


......

I know that cloaking device is still impossible with today tech, but I wonder
IF we can really create cloaking device and make someone invisible.
my question is ...

"Dose that person able to see a thing?"

Since cloaking is to bend the light away so that mean no light can get into he/she eyes as well.

or did I wrong in someway?

if true than, how that person able to see surrounding? infrared vision?

Thread 'What mathematics software should engineering students use?'

What mathematics software should engineering students use? Is it correct that much of the engineering industry relies on MATLAB, making it the tool many graduates will encounter in professional settings? How does SageMath compare? It is a free package that supports both numerical and symbolic computation and can be installed on various platforms. Could it become more widely used because it is freely available? I am an academic who has taught engineering mathematics, and taught the...
