I love using sci fi as inspiration for new products.

There's the 1974 book _Danny Dunn, Invisible Boy_ [1][2], which for a kid's book, goes into some deep ramifications of such a device.

[2] It's not invisibility ala The Invisible Man, but instead a dragonfly sized drone.

I remember that book and it had immersive feedback gloves that controlled the dragonfly.
