    *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.

    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.

    I think that if you projected your background like Predator’s suit, you could incorporate augmented reality that could allow only you to see your own body.

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)

    The only character I ever gave invisibility to they also had space/time powers of awareness of what was around them (basically, they had that first option you talked about but they didn't need to have their eyes open to see things around them). I feel like that would work but that also includes a whole other set of powers to have to go with it.....

    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.

    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)

    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.

    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 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.

    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.

    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)

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.

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 make yourself invisible to infrared, would you stop interacting with heat altogether? Would you freeze to death? Or would heat just not be able to leave your body, causing you to burn up from the inside? What if your eyes were transparent to light? Would you just see white all the time, because you're picking up light from every direction at once? Or would the light pass through your retinas without interacting with them, making you not see any light at all? I don't think you'd have to be naked, though, as long as you had invisible clothing.

  • @LocalMaple

    Have you read The Physics of Superheroes by James Kakalios? I’ll quote then explain it as I understand. Chapter 23, section What Color are Invisible Woman’s Eyes? “When [she] becomes invisible, she still absorbs and reflects light in the UV region of the spectrum... Special UV glasses (like the ones Doctor Doom installed in his armored mask) could [shift her visible].” “This also explains how IW is able to see. ... her eyes... become sensitive to the scattered UV light that bounces off us, and is ignored by our eyes. ... Windows appear transparent to us... However, when Sue is invisible a window will appear as a dark space while other objects appear transparent to her. This mechanism... was suggested in Fantastic Four #62, vol.3.” Basically, if you can shift your entire body up the color spectrum, your vision shifts with it. If you shift above UltraViolet (hey, that’s why the Incredibles daughter is named that!), you can see people and objects by their bounced UV rays, likely the same way we can see Cinderella’s glass slippers by the slight bounced colors we can see. Also, she can see herself because her pupils shifted up to match her body. Edit: Question. If infrared reads body temperature, but Sue shifted all her bodily color to be in the UV spectrum INCLUDING her IR, what will that mean for both her bodily temperature and what the IR camera sees?

He can do it with sound waves that leave his figure too making him the perfect stealth machine. However since heat is an effect on particles and not actual matter, so thermal imaging still works and while he can make fire intangible, he can still get burned.

    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.

    Yeah, at first I didn't really care about all the sciencey 'oh but you couldn't see/things would look weird/eyes visible/being naked' stuff. Superpowers aren't supposed to be 'scientifically explainable', they're fictional. And so, all the possible benefits and drawbacks are also governed by fiction, so long as it remains within our suspension of belief. But What I did find to be interesting points of discussion is the thermals and the impact on your mind from not being able to see your own body. While I'll straight up say, he definitely over-exaggerates on how screwed you'd be to thermal sensing, it's definitely something that would still be an issue if someone were to sense thermals. Even if you could stop the thermals from your own body, you'd still be causing irregularities to nearby objects. But then again. Show of hands if you or your workplace use any sort of thermal imaging and would be pointing it at nothing in particular. The inability to see yourself though, is definitely a real problem. This is something you can already experience in VR games. While almost every game will have your hands readily visible, many of them do not show anything else on your body. Regardless of full body tracking or not, you'd still be able to know where you actually stand if you could see your own body, just by using proprioception, in relation to where your in-game body's legs were, as they're typically straight down from your head, a little bit behind, then with proprioception, you figure out how much you're displaced from that body. But without that, you have no reference. This /could/ be amended by more fictional description of the invisibility. By allowing one to see oneself, only being invisible to others. But that sort of falls back to the suspension of belief point.
