I feel like this only makes sense in the US. As a non-US person, I still find it weird when people show up on video calls wearing hats (e.g. caps) at home.

What about an "On Air" light instead of the hat?
I'm now retired but headphones were my invibility hat. I was easy for the kids, headphones means daddy is not home, it was harder for my wife.
"honey, just write me on Slack if I'm wearing headphones." - not even sure if I'm being satirical or not.
this is 100% real life 0% satire, and doesn't work in a not-funny-at-all way if your partner is not a remote office worker. source: a friend
This is what I've wanted to have outside my office for a very long time.
