You could try something like a suit and a reception and deflection coating
on it. The reception unit would 'look' what the environment is like and
would translate this into electical impulses. Light is an energy, so this
should not be too difficult with SR technology.
The impulses are sent via a translator to the deflection coating, in the
coating is a chemical residue that responds to the impulses and will try to
match the light from the background.
A character should be covered entirely by the suit of course, and this can
be a bit hot. One should also not move very fast, as the response of the
reception unit isn't as fast...

... Just some thought on how I should handle something like this
