How does an invisible trailer work?

1.05K views

Chevy is running TV ads about an option that makes a trailer invisible. The ad demonstrates with a guy standing behind a utility trailer waving at the driver. I’m sure the technology is proprietary, but what can you tell me? How’s it work (in general terms)? Are we on the verge of a real cloaking device?

It will be a combination of a LCD display rearview mirror, and cameras on the vehicle and ones that you can place on the rear of the trailer. A computer combines the images to create an image that appears to not contain the trailer.
