Personal Cloaking Device

From LCARS

The Starfleet Intelligence Personal Cloaking device was backwards engineered from the Jem’Hadar ability observed during the Dominion War. Unlike cloaking technology used on Starships, it is not a perfect obfuscation of the concealed object, instead it makes it more difficult to visually spot or detect with sensors, but is still can be visually spotted by a subtle ripple — especially when subject is moving.

The device is mounted on an arm band, and has simple touch screen controls on the device. Battery is recharged either using standard methods when in Starfleet facilities, and can trickle charge itself in the field by way of a kinetic charger. The kinetic charger is not as efficient as the standard charger, and will only prolong the life of the device in the field between charges if it can not be charged by regular methods.
