Re: Stealth tank
That was state of the art cinematic in the middle of the 90's. The gameplay is even better...I was watching this, and the one thing that stands out is how slooowwww the game was on standard speed. Compared to modern day RTS game, it was almost a chess game. The atmosphere and the soundtrack (!!) are still kick ass tho.

Re: Stealth tank
1. Kane was, and still is, a fucking god. 2. The stealth tank stuff was cool, but I wasn't sure the footage I was looking at was real - or just edited to show what it could look like? On top of that, if it uses imagery - won't it be very hard to control the heat of the panels?
I guess it depends, can it literally work like the top of an oven and go hot/cold whilst displaying images? It raises a lot of question, but still is a very cool tech.

Re: Stealth tank
I think the tech is for protection from autonomus IR targeting systems, which use rapid "photography" for target acquisition. The tank would light up like a Christmas tree if one were to use a thermal camera.

Re: Stealth tank
There's active thermal camouflage for tanks in the real world now. http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/technology-14788009

Re: Stealth tank
Hmm since when do you guys post cool stuff like this in the tech forum? I hardly ever read the tech forum, thought it was always about computer stuff i didn't understand anyway. You even posted the hovering superconductor in here!
