Engineering 'ghost' objects: Breakthrough in scattering illusion

Scientists have come up with an optical device to “engineer” ghosts. When someone claims he has seen a ghost, the phenomenon may be caused by an optical illusion happening through a wild stroke of nature. But the actual engineering of such a phenomenon is the holy grail of researchers in the field of optical illusions, electromagnetic, and radar detection -- not only because of the thrill and excitement of being able to create a “ghost” but because of the implications it will have in science and applications.
