Handheld X-Ray Vision Gadget
This handheld device acts as x-ray vision, allowing you to see through walls and boxes and get a glimpse of what’s on the other side through its LCD screen. In yet another great example of biomimetics, the developers used lobster vision as the inspiration for this gadget, and use X-ray reflection to create an image.
There have been a few other interesting devices in the last few years which claim to give the same ’see through walls’ ability, such as this x ray scope which uses RF reflection and refraction for building the images. While the lobster vision device seems like it may have better image quality, the dangerous nature of x-rays will probably keep it out of our civilian hands indefinitely.
