The Inquisitor is an ultrabroad spectrum analysis device made for the mobile command bridge standard.
Just as every component of the mcb standard, the unit is able to move by itself on a floor built up with mobility bricks, upon a high-tensile electromagnetic field controlled by a computer/mainframe, with full digital awareness of other mobile mcb equipment and humans.
The device is an additional sensor suite besides the sensors that might be present on the carrying mcb vehicle, and is meant for critical mission planning and an extra level of secrecy.
Following sensors are present on the Inquisitor:
- Cassegrain short optical lense with wide CCD
- Infrared high-sensitivity module
- LIDAR, multicolored laser scanner with feedback into the optics and infrared
- Active phased array radar (AFAR) for long distance and through-cloud mapping
- Gamma radiation source for point and depth analysis of objects with ionising feedback to the AFAR
The Inquisitor sees everything and even analyses the objects on a material penetration level.
The central part contains hexagonally packed battery cells for unassisted and emergency modes of scanning,
the Inquisitor must be able to move selfsustainably on an unelectrified floor. The retro part contains a central cooling unit with all devices circulating on a common cooling bus, and a 3D-monitor for human realtime overview of the multispectral visuals. The top part contains an air filter for maintaining the internals in dust-free condition.
Both front and retro parts are tiltable. Ofcourse the Inquisitor can be remotely controlled with fully automated search pattern, moving and tilting all by itself, and ongoing recording into a highly protected internal memory bank.
This is part of a series of command bridge devices for futuristic mobile bridge units that are attachable onto different supravehicles for exploration/transport/interstellar/planetary travel. The possibility to quickly and semiautomatically reconfigure a limited human space into mission-centric clusters and configurations with right equipment in the right place would increase safety and lead to short roundtrips for any exploratory undertakings.
