Bimetallic Lattice Structure Achieves Full Thermal Invisibility From All Angles

Interesting Engineering reports that researchers at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign have designed a 3D-printed framework that redirects heat around objects to eliminate infrared detection. By combining a conductive aluminum lattice with a rubber-like insulating fill,
