Would your system work against flat cams? https://youtu.be/BdgwO_i5p54

Thats very interesting, first time hearing of it. Not sure, really depends on what kind of reflection it generates when light hits it, and because of the unique design I'm not sure what that will be.

Does it work against something that doesn’t exist yet??

Lensless cameras have been around for a long time, the chips and masks that are completely flat is a new idea, I guess.

Single pixel cameras are lensless, for instance.

At some point if you are light-emitting you're going to be captured. May need to turn yourself into a blackbody, i.e. hide under sheets.
