The company has plans to make it commercially available by 2024 at the earliest.
The Osaka-headquartered Japanese giant collaborated with metal company Sumitomo and Kyodo Printing to produce a woven elastic fabric that can be moulded into sporting uniforms.
There is no information on when a prototype will be available, but a Mizuno spokesman told Japan daily The Asahi Shimbun that the company had plans to make it commercially available by 2024 at the earliest. “The fabric has clear effects in preventing camera voyeurism,” Atsushi Shiraishi, a Mizuno official in charge of development, told Asahi on Monday .Tests revealed that infrared cameras could not capture beyond the special fabric which is opaque in images, unlike other fabrics that appear to be transparent when shot by the same camera.
