Emerging technologies form futuristic uniform

Abstract:
Dressed in black from head to toe and wearing a helmet that allows barely a glimpse of his face, Staff Sgt. Raul Lopez looked like something out of a science fiction thriller.

The black fabric of the form-fitting suit would be made through the wonder of nanotechnology, which involves manipulating atoms and molecules to create things at the nanometer scale. Soldiers wearing the suit would have the ability to blend into any environment, like a chameleon.
