The Shroud Screen was developed for use by [[Office of Naval Intelligence]] infiltration teams.{{Ref/Twitter|Id=Database|Halo|1636789506778058752|Halo|Quote=SHROUD SCREEN - Developed primarily for use by ONI infiltration teams, the Shroud Screen create a localized field that disrupts electro-optical sensors and motion trackers.|D=17|M=03|Y=2023}} It functions in a similar manner to the [[Threat Sensor]] equipment, consisting of a device fired from a handheld launching mechanism. Upon deployment, the Shroud Screen emits a [[Holography|holographic]] localised hemisphere which disrupts electro-optical sensors and [[motion tracker]]s.{{Ref/Reuse|Database}} The opaque blue sphere prevents those outside of the region from both seeing into and past the sphere. The same effect is true for those caught within the sphere—anyone who enters the region cannot see out of it. Additionally, for those within the region, all external sounds become attenuated. On top of this, the Shroud Screen is capable of blocking the sensing capabilities of the motion trackers included in [[MJOLNIR Powered Assault Armor]].{{Ref/Reuse|Holiday22}}{{Ref/Reuse|HI}} | The Shroud Screen was developed for use by [[Office of Naval Intelligence]] infiltration teams.{{Ref/Twitter|Id=Database|Halo|1636789506778058752|Halo|Quote=SHROUD SCREEN - Developed primarily for use by ONI infiltration teams, the Shroud Screen create a localized field that disrupts electro-optical sensors and motion trackers.|D=17|M=03|Y=2023}} It functions in a similar manner to the [[Threat Sensor]] equipment, consisting of a device fired from a handheld launching mechanism.

It is unclear whether the Shroud Screen shares any technological basis with the similarly-named [[Chimera (armor)|Shroudshot Augmentor]], developed by the [[Created]] for use on their [[Executor]] supersoldiers. If so, this would indicate the Shroud Screen to share some of its function with the [[disruption generator]]s of the [[Guardian Custode]]s.{{Ref/Game|Id=Shroudshot|HINF|Armor customization (Halo Infinite)|Armor Hall|Detail=Shroudshot Augmentor shoulder description|Quote=An early experiment with one-shot disruption generators that some assemblies continue to update and refine in expectation of renewed hostilities with biologic-directed power blocs.}} | |||
