PRODUCTION INFORMATION
- Manufacturer: Mirdirmorut
- Affiliation: Mirdirmorut, Closed-Market
- Model: Handheld crystal grav trap or HCGT - 5
- Modularity: No
Production: Mass-Produced.
- Material: Duravlex, electronic components, Crystals
SPECIAL FEATURES
- Synthetic crystal grid to detect and identify fluctuations in the local gravity field.
- Can have a standard gravity number already in place.
- Can be added to armour, vehicles, droids as well as be handheld
Strengths:
- Detection occurring - Can be used to detect any fluctuations in the local gravity field.
- Standard set - You can place the planets gravity within the device so it can still detect any changes within planetary gravitational fields.
Weaknesses:
- Well that did it - Ion and EMP can shut down the tech making it virtually useless.
- Readjusting to new gravity - Has to be readjusted each time it is used on a new planet or in space.
- Easy to lose - They are rather small and thus rather easy to lose especially in the middle of a fight. (Handheld)
- Destroy-able - Very easy to crush or destroy as it is only crystal, metal and some electronics
- Friendly or the enemy - it cannot tell friend from foe, meaning it is up to the user to make that distinction and will not be able to sense through people or buildings.
DESCRIPTION
Mirdirmorut got it's hands on a few Crystal gravfield traps but couldn't place them aboard ships due to them being unable to build ships and instead of sending it to one of the groups they had signed with that could they instead opened them up and decided to reverse engineer them. In doing so they figured out how to make it smaller and handheld.
Tom saw the potential in this and immediately had them being the main thing produced. However he made them closed market to keep them close to his chest at the moment knowing how deeply the galaxy would be affected should everyone being able to use this technology.
