Chameleonic materials are the end result of the marriage of
sensor technology and
nanotechnology. Similar in many ways to the painton LCD of the Information Age, the chameleonic surface
armor gadget allows any
armor to remake its own image to better blend in with the background. Microsensors on the surface of the
armor detect surrounding imagery and project it from the opposite side, in effect coloring the wearer to look just like whatever is behind him. The
armor blends in with any background.
This gadget provides the
armor's wearer a bonus on Hide checks. For
light armor, this bonus is +4; for medium, +6, for heavy, powered, and environmentally sealed armor, +10.
