Now THAT sounds cool! Just think, we might finally be able to have those transparent paper-thin display panels you see in so many science fiction movies. Or even "holographic" projectors. Just project an image onto a box or sphere of that stuff.

I like the idea, but I dont think it will be completed easily, if not completed at all. Nonetheless, I shiver at the thought of military uses. Humans keep abusing what they create -_-

I've seen it before. Not that useful when you see how much technology you need just to to make one man transparent.

For example, take this: "To an observer wearing a special head-mounted projector, the object appears semitransparent.". So you won't be invisible unless you convince everyone to use this "special head-mounted projector"
