Stealth field

The stealth field was a method of hiding oneself from the enemies. It was generated by portable generators, usually in the form of utility belts.

Stealth field did not completely hide its target, although spotting it would require some awareness and attention. The location of a stealthed target could be determined by air oscillations, like those from fire, and the presence of a silhouette. Besides, to remain unnoticed, one had to move slowly and silently. However, skilled users of stealth fields could make themselves hard to spot even for defense turrets, and could even run in stealth mode.

During and after the Jedi Civil War, stealth field generators were primarily used by the Sith Assassins, as well as Revan and the Jedi Exile's companions. Under Darth Malak's Sith Empire, a group of researchers on Korriban developed a special sound dampening stealth field generator, which was later found and used by Revan to enter Marka Ragnos' tomb while not corrupting the targeting protocols of the assassin droid guarding with excessive audio input.
