Mobile Holo-Emitter Deployment Unit

Mobile Holo-Emitter Deployment Unit

Name: HELIOS Pack (Holographic Emitter & Localized Immersive Operational System)

Form Factor:

• Appearance: Trolley-style hard case, metallic alloy with retractable chassis and ruggedized plating. Starfleet Intelligence variant includes minimal Starfleet markings, potentially Orion Syndicate or civilian freighter camouflage.
• Mobility: Handle, hover-assist lift, rugged terrain wheels. Can be deployed by a single operative or drone.

Core Systems:

• Emitter Pole: Telescopic, adjustable from 0.5m to 5m. Auto-sensing ceiling constraints; will auto-limit to available vertical space.
• Emitter Nodes: Arrayed in circular (default) or square (constrained) layout via smart-segment reallocation. Utilizes high-fidelity microprojectors with adaptive graviton fields and holo-integrity scaffolding.
• Core Processor: Integrated compact quantum core with neural-dynamic response engine. Tier 3 adaptive holomatrix rendering.
• Power Source: Miniaturized fusion core with 6-hour operational time per full charge. Has auxiliary EPS tap capability.
• Stabilization: Deployment requires hard-surface anchoring. Anti-jitter legs engage on uneven or sloped terrain. Magnetic clamp for deckplating.
• Environment Detection: Automatic terrain scanning and architecture mapping. Adjusts projection radius dynamically: max 5m spherical or 4m square depending on room geometry and obstructions.

Operational Use-Cases:

• Tactical infiltration (disguised environmental illusions)
• Rapid medical simulation or triage support
• AI projection (Nyx-class entities with local autonomy)
• Decoy or diplomatic interface system (reconstruct high-status environments or personalities)
• Espionage (simulate crew presence, fool motion sensors or enemy surveillance)

Limitations:

• Cannot operate in unstable gravitational fields without anchoring.
• Vulnerable to wideband EM disruption (Theta-band suppression).
• Projection limited to local zone only—no remote holographic relay unless coupled with shipboard uplink.
• Subject to overload if simultaneously running full-environment simulation and active AI projection.

Lore Integration:

• Designed by Starfleet, later leaked to certain Maquis and Orion black labs.
• One prototype is carried aboard the USS Heimdahl for off-grid operations, designated “Lance Echo.”

Field-ready. Covert. Adaptive. The HELIOS Pack doesn't simulate presence—it is presence.
