| - A personal cloaking device, also known as a stealth field, was a cloaking device that enabled an individual to become invisible to the naked eye. The crime lord Tyber Zann and his lieutenant Urai Fen were equipped with such devices. Spelunker probe droids, used during the Clone Wars, also made use of these devices. During the Galactic Civil War, agents of the Bothan Spynet were sometimes known to use them.
- In use by 2489, the personal cloaking device is based on the stealth technology used by Wraith fighters To function it must be used in conjunction with the hostile environment suit rather than something more basic, as it relies on the circuitry of the hostile environment suit to go into "stealth mode." It works in conjunction with the suit, which contains synthetic cells on its outermost layer that refract light. However, installment is not mandatory and are available only by request. The Terran Dominion does not grant its ghost agents such devices until they have completed their graduation mission. In 2501 a Dominion training team was issued with the devices, but they were intended to be controlled by their preceptor and not the trainees themselves.

| - In use by 2489, the personal cloaking device is based on the stealth technology used by Wraith fighters To function it must be used in conjunction with the hostile environment suit rather than something more basic, as it relies on the circuitry of the hostile environment suit to go into "stealth mode." It works in conjunction with the suit, which contains synthetic cells on its outermost layer that refract light. However, installment is not mandatory and are available only by request. The Terran Dominion does not grant its ghost agents such devices until they have completed their graduation mission. In 2501 a Dominion training team was issued with the devices, but they were intended to be controlled by their preceptor and not the trainees themselves. Upon activation of the device, a ghost is rendered almost completely invisible. A faint ripple through the air is faintly observable by the naked eye as a ghost moves if one is looking hard enough and knows what to look for, but suffice to say, few targets know what to look for until it's too late. In addition to functional advantages, the ability to cloak has given the ghosts a psychological edge over their enemies, specifically a reputation of fear. Shimmering with visible energy upon deactivation, a moebius reactor can increase the full amount of stored energy for the device. In addition, the Kimeran Pirates developed an even longer lasting reactor. The personal cloaking device also gives the ghost a psychological 'fear effect' over their enemies, cultivated (and perhaps exaggerated) by the Dominion amongst its citizens. However, the advantages of the personal cloaking device can be rendered null by specialized sensory equipment (or specialized strains such as the overlord in the case of the zerg). In addition, its effectiveness is reduced if viscous substances such as fire suppressant adhere to the hostile environment suit. However, while a human form is made visible as a result, the ghost itself is still invisible for all intents and purposes.
