A Camouflage Shield is a domelike energy field that functions much like a wide-area cloaking device. Rather than rendering something invisible, it projects a false image to those outside of the dome (typically "omitting" the things you don't wish outsiders to see,) while from the perspective of those within the dome, nothing has changed. Such shields can extend for miles both horizontally and vertically and require (relatively) little energy or infrastructure to project.[1]
