1. An optical sensor package, comprising:
- a substrate;
at least one wall disposed on the substrate;
at least one glass layer disposed on the at least one wall, where the substrate, the at least one wall, and the at least one glass layer define a first cavity and a second cavity;
at least one application specific integrated circuit disposed on the substrate and within the first cavity;
at least one light source disposed on the substrate and within the second cavity; and
a switchable layer disposed on the at least one glass layer, wherein the switchable layer comprises a thermochromic layer.

Abstract
An optical sensor package includes a substrate, a wall disposed upon the substrate, and a cover layer disposed on the wall. The substrate, the wall, and the cover layer at least partially define a cavity. The optical sensor package also includes a sensor disposed upon the substrate within the cavity. A cloaking layer is disposed upon to the cover layer. The cloaking layer is transmissive to at least a portion of a light spectrum and is configured to at least partially conceal the sensor. In some examples, the optical sensor package also includes a light source disposed upon the substrate within another cavity at least partially defined by the wall and the cover layer.
