Care for Some Transparent PSPs?

No, your eyes are not fooling you. The PSP, like the unbelievably good optical illusions of the transparent Mac that surfaced on the web a while back, has also gone transparent. These astonishing photographs are nothing short of amazing.

You people are REALLY stupid. IT says it's like the transparent Mac fad. What ou dop is take a picture of something, then display that picture on your PSP right in the same spot so it seems "transparent." People do this all the time for their computers. They're not trying to "trick" you guys or anything, it's just supposed to look cool. Notice how one pic is even ebing used as a background?? Jeese, the intelligence level of the people in the comments section is so very low. I'm glad I look here only when I want to see a full article.

"These amazing photographs is nothing short of amazing."

They certainly is, y'all... a'hyuk.

# fakage — Guest 2006-05-27 05:11

Go on the link to view more of these pics and look at the last image, the laptops frame is not visible through the psp screen....hmmm i smell a pretty lie going on.

So i come to the conclusion this is not terribly amazing. Make a dish washer that flys then ill be amazed.

Gee, you think? lol

# cool? — Guest 2006-05-27 05:18

that's the gayest pic ever, If you're gonna do a pic like that, then at least get the lighting right, it doesn't even remotely look cool, she just looks like a retard

# haha — Guest 2006-05-27 05:20

it takes tremendous skill and great camera to take these images. else, it's just photoshop.. but hell.. it looks cool and fun to just think about it.....

# sda — Guest 2006-05-27 05:21

it´s a photo

# keyboard one is great! — RaiderX 2006-05-27 05:22

i liek that one, it looks almost real. and the one with the laptop in it is cool, how did they stick the PSP there? =/

# ... — Guest 2006-05-27 05:35

Some of them are pretty cool, but there are way too many n00b mistakes in them.

In fact number 3 is the only one that could fool anybody...

# wow — Guest 2006-05-27 05:48

and it's not magic or photoshop geezz...

# uhh — Guest 2006-05-27 06:14

soooooo stupid..

# thats it — Guest 2006-05-27 07:11

you know that "jump it up" filter on the main page.

why not have a "useless crap" filter instead??

im getting closer & closer to stop using this site

# How stupid — Guest 2006-05-27 07:15

All they've done is take a picture and put it on the PSP.

The refraction of the light that should happen when the PSP is at an angle does not happen plus for *****'s sake, look at the light levels in each *****ing screen.

# calm down — Guest 2006-05-27 07:15

only 2 people have thought its real but half of you are saying "youre stupid" and addressing it to everyone, we KNOW its fake, jesus, its still nice to look at so calm down.

btw #16 lmao i needed that today

# effect — Guest 2006-05-27 07:17

It looks like good effect !!

# Guest 2006-05-27 07:24

well I don't think your level of intellence is that high either if your name is PSPHAXOR...

of course people are gonna make stupid comments..

I must say, I like the one with the lego..

# Guest 2006-05-27 07:26

ghey

# FAKE!!! — Guest 2006-05-27 07:47

Probaly fake lolz

# Neat pics, stupid comments. — Guest 2006-05-27 08:07

I must admit the effects are pretty neat to look at.

As a side note: I'd like to add I'm seeing quite a few crazies commenting that probably didn't even read the whole article to find out it's JUST pics to look at and go "Hey that's neat". They're NOT trying to trick you into thinking the PSPs really gone invisable. Jeez people are stupid...

# Hahaha — Creativethinker77 2006-05-27 08:30

These amazing photographs are nothing short of amazing.

Well said.

It looks like they just cut out the back of the psp...nice effects

Screw the jump...Just click the "Via MightyIllusions " link...

# Oops. — CarXCrashXHearts 2006-05-27 09:56

Oops, sorry about my last comment, I was rushing and didn't see the other pictures were already there.

# Still pitiful. — Guest 2006-05-27 09:56

"These amazing photographs are nothing short of amazing."

Getting there, but it's still an atrociously written sentence.

# pfft .. transparent .... ooold! — Guest 2006-05-27 10:14

You both fail at humor.

err... this is kind of annoying how so many people flame something that was just done for fun...

# xellent — Guest 2006-05-27 12:24

its so awesome if its real...

# haha — Guest 2006-05-27 13:57

Look on my illusion.

could you guess wht it is?

# obviously — Guest 2006-05-27 14:23

is fake , look at the first pic , look at her nose and the one displayed in the psp screen , the shape of the nose at the bottom of the nose in the psp screen are less than 1/12 inch in ending the nose and in the real life the bottom of her nose appears with at least 1/4 inch. Sorry if you din't understand well what I said , I'm sleepy right now.

# To all the rabid "FAKE" shouters: — FreePlay 2006-05-27 14:40

They called these things OPTICAL ILLUSIONS for a reason.

# People this is easy.... — Guest 2006-05-27 15:00

Yes some of those are fake but if some of you have not figured out how to do it its easy. Just take a pic of somthing close then view the image in you PSP put the PSP in the location where you took the pic but put the PSP in the area where you took the pic and move farther away and take a pic of the same area but makes sure its showing more area thats surrounding the PSP......

# DUM...B — Guest 2006-05-27 16:59

thats so cool omg someone took a picture of a picture of thier psp.

How gay som1 has no life.

# did you notice — Guest 2006-05-27 17:17

Did you notice that in the pic with the 2 Tvs in it and the laptop, that the laptop is missing the frame when seen thru the psp. /me hopes that came out clear. and 66 lol your an idiot.

Neat idea, very clever.

# im smart — Guest 2006-05-27 17:58

# WTF? — Guest 2006-05-27 18:47

# teh comment — Guest 2006-05-27 18:50

# Oh well — Guest 2006-05-27 19:58

I have my editor to blame for that. Hahaha.

Fixing it don't worry.

# some of my photoshop art — Guest 2006-05-27 20:45

folks, this isn't difficult, all you need to do is get a nice pic of a psp, make the screen area transparent, add a white/blue filter to it, and copy it over pictures, or if you are hardcore, prop up a camera a certain way, take a picture, fix the aspect ratio, put on psp, then have it showing while you take a picture

# Re#74 — Jeff Chen 2006-05-27 23:28

Nope dude, yours are obviously fake compared to the ones in the post. I do think the ones in the post are legit - look at the reflection, shadow and ambient light. Using PS to make them is not the right approach you want to do it ;)

# What a fake! — Guest 2006-05-28 00:45

The first pic, the psp strap is behind it if u look at the right hand side, it sticks out but u cant c it on the screen, and the persons hair is over the top of the screen yet u can c past their head. the pic with the psp 'hovering' by the laptop, i wish my psp cud hover then it wudnt matter if i dropped it, and whereis the side of the laptop on that screen?

Nice try at the pics whoever did them!!

# kl — Guest 2006-05-28 00:53

now i want one of them psps without the mechanisms nd chips required 2 make the umds nd systems work, they must make the psp much lighter!!!!

what tit thinks people will fall 4 this sort of thing?

# -.- — Guest 2006-05-28 02:40

this is called optical camouflage, developd by some japanese smartheads at tokyo, its simple, a camera capturing the scene behind the psp a computer processing the captured images as like you see the real scene. the images are then sent to a projector which projects the image on the psp, and because the image is projected by the technology called Retro-reflective Projection Technology (RPT), you can see the reflection only on the psp screen cause they probably set some Retro-Reflective Material on it, or perhaps the psp screen is already retro reflective ^^.

this technology was announced 4 years ago if i remember correctly XD.

here is a link to some optical camouflage videos

http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/5639/2020/400/37242564_c3ae620b7f.jpg

thatd take way too long to photoshop... this was just meant to look cool, also if u actually go to his website he has some cool laptop illusions also

stop flaming its just mean to look cool >

# g — Guest 2006-05-28 07:13

dos dis worc on 2.7

# What the F&*$ — Guest 2006-05-28 08:23

Jeez people. That it called a PHOTO. its just put on display. Anyone can do it. In fact, Im going to do that. YOUR GARBAGE

Those who did this had alot of time. No offence.

Did you guys know that 'Gullible' is written on your ceiling?

# ok — Guest 2006-05-28 09:01

umm not anyone could do this. looks like it would take some time and photoshop/camera knowledge. I bet some of it took some time to get right. but its only mildly entertaining to say the least. I think im gonna make one with my dingy and blow it up a bit. Ill send it in for everyones enjoyment. lol jk

# This is funny. — Guest 2006-05-28 12:10

I think that it is funny all the people saying that this article is not worth the time posting, yet it has some of the most comments I have seen. Also funny is all the flamers that are either criticizing the making of the photos, or making fun of the people who appreciate this.

This was made by someone just having fun, and should be taken as such. If you don't like it, who cares? I for one think it is neat, easy to do, but neat none the less.

PSP updates is still in my opinion the best site for pspinfo/hacking and if you dont like a article, here is a easy fix, DONT READ IT !

# ... — Guest 2006-06-14 11:59

Anyone notice that the person who made these name is "MightIllusions"?
