optical camoflage and looking glasses

a stopped-in-my-tracks moment, watching this video:
http://projects.star.t.u-tokyo.ac.jp/projects/MEDIA/xv/images/mirror.mpg

the bookcase image on the right is taken from that video, the one on the left taken from my museums masters project. more about that in here:

all that apart, the project behind that bookcase video has developed optical camoflage, ‘ghost in the shell’ on our streets. although it only works if you wear their helmet, so not too useful as camoflage but in terms of augmented reality and infomatics, amazing.
