Interesting
The "scorching hot cloak" is not really an issue. After all, there is already "long underwear" embedded with tubes that circulate water or other liquids to cool a body down.

Fail.
Remember Predator 2, anyone? OK, maybe not.
The thing is, as soon as the predator thought something was out there he
changed the spectrum, and then everyone stood out. Using really hot air
to bend light at one spectrum point will make it really, really stand out on
the IR.

uuhh...
Just what are these "applications that could arise from this device, besides cloaking"?

Sorry,
Sorry, but all I see is a sheet of some translucent something fading ITSELF from visibility by becoming, in effect, transparent. Glass is already transparent, and as such is doesn't even need a switch!
If there is anything more to see, you would HOPE that the researchers would have thought up a better illustration of the effect. What I see here means pretty much nothing. Yes, the supports disappear, but that is what I'd expect of any reflective surface viewed AT AN ANGLE as this one is.
So "pretty much nothing" is the inevitable take-away I get from this one video.
Call me when there is something to see, is what I say.
