In ''[[Halo: Combat Evolved]]'' and ''[[Halo 2]]'', it is stored in a small, glass-like pyramid; in ''[[Halo 3]]'' it is suspended in a spherical force-field. A person can use the light-bending energy by merely coming into physical contact with the container, which will cause it to break and release its contents. Upon release, the energy envelops the wearer and bends light around their skin, [[armor]], or [[shielding]], conforming to their form and rendering them almost invisible. At that point, the energy will gradually dissipate and wear off, slowly revealing its user.

The effect lasts only for ten seconds, and only prevents visual detection; those using Active Camo can be ~~detected through~~ other means, including motion ~~trackers~~, ~~any noises they make~~, and ~~any changes to the environment that result from their movement~~ (things like footprints on soft terrain).

The effect lasts only for ten seconds, and only prevents visual detection; those using Active Camo can be observed by other means, including motion tracking, noise, and enviromental disturbances (things like footprints on soft terrain).

Being a Covenant device, Active Camo is most commonly used by [[Special Operations Elites]], [[Stealth Elites]], and [[Brute Stalker]]s. However, all varieties of [[MJOLNIR]] armor ~~after and including the~~ [[Mark V]] can ~~also~~ use ~~the technology~~.
