Just something to try...

What if you point it at the Sun and then use something like a sparker
(torch lighter, Bic lighter) to trigger it to go dark. Will it stay dark
then, maybe?

Actually, simply waving my hand in front the the sensor was enough to get
it to trigger, but as soon as you stop waving, it goes transparent again.

Tried to think of some flickering light source I could use that I would
trust my vision to, and decided it wasn't a good idea.

Stick a small electric motor and a propeller on the front of the
hood so the propeller interrupts the light to the sensor.

Enjoy,
DoN.
