    *The "Kyle is Wrong!" FAQ*
    Hey! Thanks for watching. The vlog this week doesn't cover this video, so here are some answers to your corrections:
    1. I am of course aware that blind individuals can navigate the world and live normal lives! But I think you'd have a hard time arguing that their experience is a "superpowered" one, as we understand it.
    2. Many people are misunderstanding my proprioception argument. I believe that we underestimate just how much visual information adds to our "movement sense." Knowing how to grasp objects, walk among obstacles, etc. (think of how hard it would be if you couldn't see where your body was) involves visual cues you don't even notice.
    3. Yes, you can type without looking at your fingers, but that's not what I said. Without being able to FEEL where your fingers are -- with proprioception -- you would have to look at them.
    4. The WHOLE POINT isn't that invisibility is impossible or impossible to live with, the point is that it has enough drawbacks that I wouldn't consider many versions of it "super," in that it wouldn't make you a superhero in the way you think. -- KH

      As per my comments earlier, I had made an experiment to prove that point 2 is not so much of a drawback.
      In the video, you ask us to imagine how to interact object with zero visual input. As a matter of fact, we don't have to imagine, we can replicate that process in VR.
      In case you miss my comments, here are my experiments.
      I recreated an identical room in the virtual world based on a physical room. Every object is also replicated in that room. The only thing that is missing in the virtual world, is your own body. I can easily grab anything with no problem. The longer I am in it, the more comfortable it becomes.
      Do note that, the difference between the physical and virtual world is around 2-3cm. A wall that is supposed to be 10cm away in the real world could be 7-13cm in the virtual world. Even with this layer of error, I still have no problem navigating.
      I do have other subjects on the experiment and it takes them a short moment to adjust to it. Now imagine having this power since birth, you will adapt to it like learning how to walk.

      @jasonjulian1 5 років тому +40

      Points 1-4 make perfect sense, Kyle. These drawbacks hardly make for a "super" ability at all. That's why, as I previously commented, the only method/means of invisibility to others that makes sense is a phase-shift out of our 3 dimensional space where you can still walk around and see and hear everything, but perhaps not interact with it (much, if at all). Frodo and Bilbo's Ring of Power; Phase shifting a la the later Stargate SG-1 episodes with Merlin's workshop- out of phase and invisible to the rest of us, but technically "still there".

    Proposition;
    What if we made a nano fiber optic mesh that collects photons and sends them from about the same location from any angle. Routing the light around you?
    You could place magnetic coils around the fibers to collect data from the sympathetic charge and make a 360° line of sight.
    The thermal energy of your body could be regulated and the excess heat could be filtered through a cascade lens making random wave lengths of light. that light could then be used to boost the output light so there is no preceivable heat or dimming.
    Only a randomly oscillating polarization lens would be able to see the shimmer of light at the wrong angle.

Imagine that the suit blocks the heat emitted by the body, while retranslating the holographic (view-angle-sensitive) image of objects behind the suit, in all reasonable wavelengths, including IR. What that requires, though, is each pixel retranlating light rays from all other pixels (at different angles); what's worse, as the suit is moving with the body, these angles also change, so it can't be just a ton of optic fibers, it needs real-time commutation. May be easier with, say, an "invisibility sphere", coz it's shape is constant, so it can be probably done with just optic fibers. Though it still fails in rain, smoke, fog, etc. Again, if you think, such a suit must replicate rays from such light sources as the sun, to avoid creating a shadow; if the suit recreates light instead of rerouting it, I think the suit will be pretty hot to wear 'x)

    Worm had someone have a power of invisibility by literally making people forget about her while the power was active. She could reappear and their memories would be restored.
    That said, I think any super power is too easy to corrupt a person for us to want. As you mentioned, invisibility would probably have people more willing to try spying on or stealing from others. As fun as it could be to be 'naughty,' one would likely loose some of their morals. I know I'd probably be too tempted to go where I'm not supposed to go.

    Please keep in mind that this video refers to classic invisibility. With the exception of the 'no spatial awareness' rule and the thermal imaging mentioned in this video, projecting photons that are on either side of oneself could easily combat that whole 'unable to see' argument. Although he's right, you still wouldn't be able to rob banks/ steal anything because a floating bag of cash or a Chanel handbag would be a dead giveaway. The most you could do with this would be to avoid social interaction. Which in my opinion is sooo fucking worth it.

    The best way I could understand the theory of being invisible and the comparison of not have the mobility thing in your brain is the same feeling of have absolutely no blood circulation in all of your nerves. You when your: arm, hand, leg, and/or foot are so numb to the point you can’t feel what your: stepping on, holding, or touching anything, is what I think is would be like to be invisible based on how he described with the brains mobility thing. (I’m sorry if my explanation doesn’t make sense, not really good at explaining or describing things)

  • @BusterBrown1217
    @BusterBrown1217 Рік тому +1

    The book "Secret Keepers" has an excellently accurate version of invisibility. It has a watch with a special metal allowing it to re-route photons when powered. In the book, it does make the invisible people blind, but only while they are holding it and stuff (holding because the watch draws power from the holder, which does make them tired etc.). But, because it redirects them, you aren't completely invisible because there is still a little haze due to the photons getting messed with (similar to refraction).
    The book is by Trenton Lee Stewart and it is amazingly accurate and just a good book.

    I read this book once called The Secret Keepers that had an invisibility plot. The device the main character used was a watch that altered light to render one invisible, but as a side effect made him blind while it was in use. The duration was also limited for plot reasons that I won't get into because spoilers. It was a really interesting story, all and all, and did really well with the concept.

    All the alternatives I can think of:
    In hitchhiker's guide to the galaxy or specifically "so long and thanks for all the fish" there's a piece of technology called the "Somebody Else's Problem Field" or SEP where you basically can't notice it if its existence would be a problem to you.
    it really isn't invisibility but rather a projection of something so absurd that your brain just decides to ignore it so becomes somebody else's problem. You can catch what it actually is in the corner of your eye though if I remember right. But hay, it only requires a 9 volt battery to run indefinitely and cooler you can turn it around on yourself in any environment impossible to survive in because it can cause your body to just ignore the danger to such a degree it just goes on like normal because its somebody else's problem.
    Similarly SCP-5000 is a suit where while on, everyone and everything looking at you literally can't comprehend your existence so their brain just immediately erases any image of your presence. So your not invisible, people's brains just can't allowed them to understand that you're there.
    And the least interesting but wanted to mention it, the nano suit in Crysis how it works is its one giant mirror where its reflecting the environment around it making it look like nothing is there, and I think I can assume the suit can emulate the surrounding temperature as well, but that wouldn't help if you were standing, also light can't pass through you meaning if someone shines a flashlight or laser at you it won't light up anything behind you making your location obvious and one that practically means your doomed. And that last one is actually shown in game, where enemies will shoot at you if they realize their laser sights just suddenly stopped in empty space. Same reason you'd probably be caught on thermals while standing, because a random grey human shape in the middle of space probably wouldn't be normal. Yeah this is the weakest in the bunch, but works great if you have it for a suit that can do other super power like things.
    Man I think I accidentally ranked it from best to worse there.

    As many others have already mentioned with examples from other fandoms, you don't need real invisibility - only a telepathic suggestion. I'd like to add another fandom on the list, and that's Star Wars, where (at least in some of the extended universe) Jedi can do a 'don't see me' mental suggestion/trick, so they slip by undetected. It's more difficult the more people are involved, but it does make for a more convenient premise.

    You don’t need invisibility when you have active camouflage. Even now snipers use a type of active camouflage to hide their position. Also wearing thermo suit can hide your heat signature. Adaptive active camouflage called chameleon shield armor uses photocells and cameras to blend in with the environment just like some animals can do. However you must remain stationary or move very slowly. This technology is used for gathering intelligence through observation or as a camouflage sniper position. You could have a suit and use it as a spy to blend into a room to avoid detection, still motion and infrared beams could still detect you.

    That's because they don't turn invisible. Instead, they influence the minds of people around them to not notice them and to make them rationalise why they shouldn't bump into you. Of course, there are plenty of creatures who are immune or highly resistant to this, but that makes the power a lot more interesting IMO.

Basically, it’s a device that creates a field around an object rendering it “somebody else’s problem.” It’s not that the spaceship on the cricket pitch can’t be seen, it’s that anyone who sees it subconsciously tells themselves “How odd, I’m glad that isn’t my concern,” and they happily ignore it.

    There is a variant of invisibility that I came up with for my story.
    It assumes that light passes through an additional 4th dimension in space, some of the light passes through, but when some of the light is reflected, it is sent along a coordinate to another dimension, so this reflection is no longer in contact with our 3rd dimensions, and we we don't see.
    Getting into this dimension makes them completely invisible, but the people themselves do not see anything in this dimension.
    The owner of the ability must have 3D vision in order to see photons from the 4th dimension and navigate in space (this also gives him a semblance of x-ray vision, because he sees those photons that pass through objects)

    Here's my solution to 'most' of the problems.
    The way my brand invisibility works is that photons with a frequency below ultraviolet pass through your body, but your eyes are mutated to only see ultraviolet light instead of visible. So you can see yourself since you absorb ultraviolet, and your invisibe to half the EM spectrum.

    If you could somehow project the photons coming to you in the same direction they're going, you'd have to absorb 100% of the light, that way you can still see everything else except yourself while being invisible (obviously you cannot see yourself if you don't want anyone else to see you). But here's the catch: absorbing 100% of the light means you heat up very fast, although you wouldn't be toasted (except when there's enough light), it'd still be a lot hotter than usual.
    The only way you can be completely invisible (even to thermal cameras) is you have a shield around you, big enough that you can still see yourself and project the light coming to it. Kinda like a chamber where light can get in but not out.
