Science Channel@thesciencechannelAn invisibility cloak, but for heat.
Engineers at the University of Illinois built a 3D cloak from a 3D-printed aluminium lattice filled with rubbery material. It steers heat around a hidden object, so to an infrared camera the object seems to vanish, even complex shapes like a human head. Possible uses include cooling microchips and protecting electronics.
