Produced by zZip Product Concepts Limited, the PSG-8487 View Masker functioned as an individually held distortion field emitter.
About the size of a pendant, the View Masker required voice coding and activation. Upon activation, it generated a distortion field, spanning a diameter of multiple meters, centered on the user. Once active, this field completely neutralized the effectiveness of visual and audio scanning using sensors or any kind of recording equipment. Furthermore, the field generated a form of "visual interference" surrounding the user, preventing any form of visual identification, even by direct observation.
Frequently employed by individuals such as diplomats, politicians, and those with heightened security concerns, View Maskers were sold to the general public for a price of 2,500 credits.
