The CQ-3.9x holographic image disguiser was manufactured by Corellidyne Visuals. Small enough to worn on a belt, the unit was designed for use in the entertainment industry, as well as being employed as a tool in military simulations. It used a Corellidyne CP-3.3 hologram projector, and incorporated many advancements in hologram technology to produce a lifelike holographic image. The CQ3.9x did not incorporate a holorecorder, instead relying on a CX-3.1 hologram recorder to scan the image of a person or object.
The projected image was a prerecorded likeness that completely hid the person wearing the belt. The hologram had to be larger than the individual being hidden; the unit's computer matched the projection's movements to the wearer's. To the Human eye, the projection was convincing although droids and security scanners could pick up visual distortions. However, the effect was not long-lasting; the high energy power cell would drain in less than two minutes. Another limitation on the system was that the CP3.3 holoprojector could only store an image of a single subject. Despite these drawbacks, each unit cost twenty-five thousand credits.
