Function/Definition
|
Annular Confinement Beam
(ACB)
|
Beam used to transport the matter stream to the destination
|
Biofilter
|
Scans incoming subject for dangerous bacteria, virii,
etc. If found, the biofilter will remove them from the stream. It can be
configured to check for different materials and identify weapons
|
Emitter
Array
|
Array on hull that transmits components of the matter
stream and ACB to the destination
|
Matter Stream
|
Stream of matter belonging to the debonded subject
|
Molecular
Imaging Scanner
|
Scanner that collects and debonds the subject
|
Operator's Console
|
Control station used by Transporter Chief (TC)
|
Pattern
Buffer
|
Buffer that holds the pattern of the subject safe
until transport occurs with a very limited time duration
|
Phase
Transition Coils
|
Coils in the platform of the transporter chamber that
dematerialize and rematerialize the subject
|
Primary Energizing Coils
|
Coils in the top of the transport changer that create
the ACB to make a spatial matrix in which the materialization and dematerialization
occurs
|
Targeting Scanners
|
Set of partially redundant scanners in the hull that
determine information necessary to determine the transporter coordinates
and environment of destination, includes range, bearing, relative velocity,
and environmental conditions
|
Transport Chamber
|
The volume of space in which a subject will materialize
or dematerialize
|
Transporter
Controller
|
Subprocessor of the computer
that manages the operation of all the transporter systems
