 A thin forcefield surrounds your body, continually draining power. Anything attempting to penetrate this field has a chance of being deflected at the cost of energy. Bullets will be stopped more often than swords and those in turn more often than massive objects. 
This item is a Compact Bionics Module.

CBMs are installed by interacting with autodoc or non-player character with high medical skills. Installation has a medium chance of genetic damage, blood loss, or damage to existing bionics based on intelligence, electronics, first aid, mechanics, and the MD profession.

This is an activated CBM, it costs 10 bionic power to activate, costs 10 every 1 turn(s) while active, can be toggled on and off, and can be viewed on the bionics menu (p). More details on bionics' JSON flags can be found here. Some bionics can also be disassembled (() to obtain burnt out bionics if you have a soldering iron (20) OR Integrated Toolset (20), 1 tool with screw driving quality of 1, and the electronics (7) and first aid (5) skill required.
