The energy cloak. It can transfer heat energy from laser beams and other directed energy weapons.

The new 3D material can act as a thermal cloak. For high-thermal materials. Those materials can transfer heat into that new material. Then that thing can transfer thermal energy into structures. That transports it away. This thing can control temperatures in high-temperature materials, such as those used in hypersonic flight. The material can dump its energy into that new structure. So, it can open a path to higher speed. That new material can also act as a fire shield for the structures. And that makes it possible to create the systems. That can resist higher temperatures than before. But that material. It can be even more fundamental than researchers even thought.  

The energy cloak. It can transfer heat energy from laser beams and other directed energy weapons. 

Into the wanted direction. This makes it possible to use materials that absorb more thermal energy than other materials. The “absolute black” materials have one problem. They must dump their heat energy somewhere. The absolute black materials with minimum reflection could deny the use of laser pointers to point rockets at stealth structures. The absolute black material that absorbs all light has a problem. Without. An energy cloak. That material will melt. And a new 3D energy cloak. It can be an answer for that problem. 

In stealth technology, this material. It can be the new fundamental advance. When. We think about RAM (Radiation-Absorbent Material). Those highly advanced materials transform radio waves into thermal energy. And if that thermal energy. It can be sucked away. That system can make stealth technology more effective. The problem with RAM materials. It is this. Those materials. They will take heat from radio waves. Sooner or later, that can turn dangerous. If an aircraft travels near its material’s heat limit. 

The small boost in temperature. It can turn dangerous. The material can turn too weak. Or. It can start to turn the aircraft. Into. The object. That is an easy target for the IR-seeking missiles. Aircraft like the B-2 and B-24 Raider. Their form makes radio waves slide over the structure. Those aircraft have a structure that divides the radiation. The problem is that. Those structures are very vulnerable. If something hits them. And. Changes their shape.

So, if a B-2 is detected. By an enemy fighter. That fighter. It can try to attack the B-2 by using cannons or laser-guided rockets. Those rockets. They can at least damage the stealth shell. By. Using a combination of the RAM materials and the shape of the plane. The plane will become more stealthy. There is a small vulnerability in the aircraft. It uses only the shape-based systems. The problem is the scattering effect. The radar satellite searches for stealth aircraft. It can see the scattering from above against the ground. The RAM material turns the aircraft into a shadow that travels over the ground. The radar can see the aircraft as a point. There is no reflection from the ground. But the scattering effect is more dangerous. 

Some non-stealth aircraft can find stealth aircraft. Using AI-controlled camera systems. That system uses IR, UV, and visible light. The Su-35 could find the B-2 and use laser-guided rockets and cannons to destroy its stealth structures. Another system. It could use an AI-based image recognition system. 

If. The enemy has an image of that aircraft. That kind of system. They can detect the target and shoot it down. The system could use similar algorithms. That are used in GSM image recognition.

That means the stealth bomber is invisible. Only. If its stealth structures are not damaged. The combination of the RAM materials and stealth shape. can decrease the ability to detect those aircraft. But as I wrote earlier. The new thermal cloak could protect aircraft and satellites against things like laser weapons. The energy cloak transfers the thermal energy from the structures. And that makes the stealth aircraft less vulnerable to laser beams.

The new microchips can combine the camera and computer into one package.

The new microchips think like humans and see like eyes. Those systems combine the camera and computer into one entirety.  It makes the lightning-fast reactions for robots possible. Those microchips can revolutionize robotics. They can act as an intelligent eye prosthetic. There is the possibility to connect the retina microchips with the optic nerve. 

But if the optic nerve is damaged that system can communicate with a Neuralink-type brain implant that stimulates the viewing center. That kind of tool can also be used in small-size robots and drones. Those systems can connect those new microchips with the drone's control systems. And that allows developers to make smaller systems. 

The system can be used in systems that should see in every direction. These kinds of microchips can turn the observation abilities to a new level. If we cover some vehicles using those systems that makes it possible to see and react fast to things like incoming meteorites or maybe they can be used in tanks. If that kind of system is connected with the protective systems like Trophy that allows the system to react faster to incoming missiles. The system can begin the counter-actions faster. Another thing is that these kinds of systems can also protect satellites against incoming antisatellite weapons.

That thing is very important in the new technologies like systems that turn a person invisible. The invisibility cloak or armor can look like samurai armor or Darth Vader's suit in Star Wars movies. There are screens on the suit. And the cameras on opposite sides of the suit can turn the person hollow. That kind of chameleon suit makes a person invisible to the human eye. The new microchips are also required in the new interactive materials, which are the same time robots and materials. Those systems can make the self-repairing structures possible. 

The idea is that structure. That you see as a solid, or united form of the small robots. Those robots are like Legos that can touch each other. If something breaks that structure, the repairments come from the warehouse, and then the damaged parts of the structure are removed. Those bites replace the damaged thing. 

The new system, called “Metabot" is the system that combines materials and robots. Those systems can be used in many missions like fixing leaking oil and gas tubes. The system must only find the point where the leak is. And then cover it. That makes this new microchip a very effective tool.
