REI Portable Speech Masking Kit

Protect Private Conversations

The Portable Masking Kit (PMK-8) protects private conversations by injecting voice masking noise into structural surfaces, gaps, and free space, making conversations unintelligible.  Portable Masking Kit creates a perimeter of masking noise that defeats acoustic leakage and eavesdropping devices like:

  • Wired wall devices
  • Contact microphones
  • Hidden audio transmitters
  • Laser/reflections from windows

Efficiency: This kit provides a temporary audio security solution when you need to get in, set up voice masking security, and get out.

Usability: Create a Voice Masking perimeter to protect against structure bound audio threats

Portability: The Portable Masking Kit, PMK-8 packs 8 Voice Masking Generator sets (unit, transducers, cables) in a hard shell case for easy transport with wireless charging in the case.

PMK-8 expected ship date October.
