According to Android Police, the Photochrom filter processes infrared light.
With the help of its post-processing technology, images were taken using the filter resulted in weird false-color images of the item. However, as explained, not all items can be filtered with the camera mode. Thin plastic-made materials are commonly the types of plastic that the filter can see-through. If the item also does not have an IR shield, the 'x-ray' mode can easily be seen through your OnePlus 8 Pro.

Other tech writers and experts also commended what OnePlus 8 Pro done with its camera. Mishaal Rahman from XDA Developers said that the filter is not a gimmick, and can be seen at:
