The '''Active Camouflage'''power-up is light-bending energy which is stored in the same way as the [[Covenant]] [[Overshield]]. When the user breaks the active camouflage container, the energy envelops the wearer and bends light around the skin, armor, or shielding, conforming to it's user's form, rendering him almost invisible. This effect wears off as the energy dissipates.

When any projectiles pass through this shielding, it is temporarily deactivated causing the user to become visible. It should be noted that this is speculation based on field reports, and has not been proven because no one has yet captured an intact device.
