I'd love to see a demonstration of it. Seems a little pie in the sky at the moment...

Three problems:

1) Currently, it only works on microwaves of a given frequency range. Not sure if it's the same as radars frequencies... and the cops can still see you anyway.

2) You need a car that's smaller than 5"

3) Cops will soon revert to sonar rather than radar, so we are back to square one

but apart from that...
