A masking device can scan any person’s face and digitally recreate it. Imbedded in someone’s neck, it can project that recreation on that person’s face. There are only a few in existence, all created and owned by the Authorities. It took decades of technological advances and research to develop the masking device.

“This is a masking device. It can scan any person’s face and digitally recreate it. Imbedded in someone’s neck, it can project that recreation on that person’s face. Essentially, it’s a disguising device, like projecting a mask onto someone’s head. It’s quite expensive and complex, of course, so it’s rare to find one of these. There are only a few in existence, all created and owned by the Authorities. It’s taken decades of technological advances and research to develop this device. But it’s quite effective.”
