| [[File:Scannerancient.jpg|thumb]]Multi-function device of [[Ancient]] origin, capable of detecting human and [[Wraith]] life signs, radiation and power sources, and more. The device is portable and hand-held, easily concealed in a vest pocket, with a detection range of approximately 100 meters. [[Puddle Jumpers]] come standard with at least one of them.
| |
| The Wraith are aware of the technology as having belonged to the Ancients -- the [[Keeper]] recognized it on sight. Individuals detected by the device appear as blinking squares on the display. While its Ancient name is unknown, [[Lieutenant Aiden Ford]] was eager to name it a "life signs detector" when it was first discovered -- though it has other functions.
