The AUDIO invisibility cloak: One-way sound device could let spies listen in on people without being heard

The AUDIO invisibility cloak: One-way sound device could let spies listen in on people without being heard | Mail Online: "Spies around the world could soon be able to listen in on secret conversations without any fear of being found out thanks to the first ever one-way sound machine.

The centre of the acoustic circulator, pictured, is fitted with three specially positioned fans that change the flow of air through the separate chambers. The arrows show how sound waves flow from one port, to the next, in sequence, and never bounce back. The circulator is the first-ever one-way sound machine

Sound waves traditionally travel forward before bouncing back, and with sound this means you can speak, hear yourself speak, and hear any responses."
