Hi there! I am a long time GM of RPGs in general, recently looked into Shadowrun and I am running a 4th edition game for some local friends, and its been a blast, however one of my players has this spell Camouflage (and the better version of it as well) and literally consistently gives anyone a -6 at least to be able to perceive him.

How do I go about getting around it for the bad guys? Now not every bad guy is going to be able to see through it, but so far as he described and as I read it, it seems pretty powerful. I will note that I have read and reread recently and noted that it affects "visual" perception based checks/tests, does this mean something like Ultrasound sensors will see him and allow the wearer to see a humanoid sound based shape where the PC is standing?

What are some other ways to see Invisibility and Camouflage and the Physical Camouflage spells?
