    Put a webcam in front of you and hold a laptop behind you. Impress your friends as you appear to be "invisible!" This technology has existed for a long time in one form or another, but I simply do not see it becoming practical. If you need to get some place without anyone seeing you, learn how to utilize camo and cover while moving carefully without making too much noise. Don't rely on some super vaporware to save you.
