Ruthenium polymers undergo a color change with the application of a small voltaic charge. The charge alters the polymer's chemical composition, allowing it to shift between a wide spectrum of hues. Since these polymers are also very durable and can be applied in layers of less than about 0.1 micron thick, they can be put on virtually any surface without any appreciable loss of flexibility or function. This makes ruthenium polymers useful for chameleon cloaking technology. - Game Effects: The entire object/subject must be covered with ruthenium. When activated, the Target Number for perception checks against the cloaked object are increased by 4. Each extra Imaging Scanner beyond four, add 1 to the penalty, up to a maximum of +12 total modifier. Ruthenium systems are powered by gel packs with 10 hours duration; new packs cost 50 nuyen. Radar, thermographic, and ultrasound systems are not affected. Against metahumans with such senses, or vehicle sensors, the perception penalty is divided by hald (round down). Ruthenium is only effective on stationary or slow-moving targets (6 meters or less in a Combat Turn). Faster movement reduces penalties.
