A Scanner Darkly (Scramble Suit)

Brief description

In the police state world of A Scanner Darkly, undercover agents wear these to hide their identity when they are in some official capacity, such as at police headquarters or giving a public service speech. Otherwise, criminals would recognize them, and their cover would be blown. Aside from concealing facial features and other physical traits, they also alter voice patterns. Effectively, it is impossible to tell who is wearing a scramble suit. It is also efficient to avoid facial recognition detection. Also they have a MV from inside the scramble suit, where you can receive audio messages and mute yourself and communicate within the suit. The suit in itself is made up of a million and half fration-representations of men, women and children in every variant.
