Yeah it's neat and all...but the size of lens needed to cloak an entire Klingon Bird of Prey would be...well...astronomical. ;)

They suggest a surgeon could operate and see through his hands operating or a truck driver could see through his blind spots. Does it follow that a mechanic could see through an engine to see what's wrong? Could a MD patient see through their condition?
We actually tried this at the office with some + twos and threes. We got staff to hold them up at the approximate focal lengths, and had somebody at the end wave their hand.
It it was crude and blurry for sure, but you could see that when the hand moved right in the line of the lenses, you couldn't see it. As soon as the hand moved a little off center you could see it through the lens.
it brought back nightmares of learning about entrance and exit pupils.
We all got a good laugh though.
