Bioscan/Legends

A bioscan was a scanner and diagnostic package designed to identify and analyze the biological composition and medical status of living beings. Not a portable unit, the dedicated sensor array was built into a sturdy framework that was lowered onto a patient. The array includes a medtox detector, vapor-sampler and doppraymago scanner, all connected to an analysis computer.

In addition to medical applications, the bioscan could be used to identify more than a thousand alien species. It could be recalibrated to serve as a surveillance device, detecting and analyzing power sources, but only able to detect communication transmissions, and weapon signatures within an extremely limited range.
