A multidirectional `perfect paraxial’ cloak using four lenses. From a continuous range of viewing angles, the hand remains cloaked, and the grids seen through the device match the background on the wall (about 2 m away), in color, spacing, shifts, and magnification.

For their demonstration cloak, the researchers used 50mm achromatic doublets with focal lengths f1 = 200mm and f2 = 75mm. Credit: University of Rochester

The latest effort, developed at the University of Rochester
I live near Rochester and it'll be interesting to see if this is on the local news tonight.
Would be a nice break from the usual shootings, muggings and other assorted mayhem, as practiced by the city's "teens."

So if you took a shot at a tree and it turned out there was an invisible person standing between you and the tree then would you be guilty of a crime?
