I’ve hunted predators and been successful on my lock-on deer stands. They’re not that brand, but if you send me one, I’d try it and review it.
 
3 things

1. If you set up the blind for that hunt, its covered in your scent and going to make a giant scent cone. If the dogs care and know what human scent is, they arent coming near it.
2. They are not stupid, they know what every part of their home area looks like. They are going to pick out that blind in a second, even a camo tidewe see through one
3. They probably know what blinds are unless you hunt in the middle of nowhere. They get shot at from deer and turkey blinds, they know not to go near the big round dark blobs.

I know you are just advertising, but still… no they are not commonly used in predator hunting
 
The only blind I ever considered to use for calling coyotes in wide open country with no cover is the silhouette cow blinds.

When I was younger I had lots of coyotes run right up to me in shotgun range and rifle range by laying on my back with a shotgun or laying prone with a rifle.

If I wear camo and have my face and hands covered and don't move I have had lots of coyotes run right up to me in wide open country with grass that is only 4" to 8" high.

No blind was needed to take this big male coyote with a shotgun in wide open country.

My son and I were laying prone side by side when the above coyote ran right up to about 70 yards from my Foxpro in country with no cover. When my son moved his rifle to get on the coyote, it stopped and looked at us to try and figure out what we were. In wide open cattle country coyotes are not real concerned about things that are 2 feet to 3 feet tall, especially if those things are not moving.
 
One of the most unique men I have ever known killed 11 coyotes from his 1984 Jeep using the cassette deck in the dash. He used to go out on a friends property and find a place to park, roll down one window, turn on the cassette player and wait. He was mostly always successful, unlike his foray into prairie dog hunting with a 45-70 Trapdoor.
