-(Natural News) A recently developed “acoustic telescope” uses light-manipulating techniques to transmit and pick up sounds over long distances. Acoustic metamaterials make it possible for the device to target people at a distance and project sounds into their heads. Academics from the University of Sussex and their colleagues at the University of Bristol demonstrated how they […]
