Stargate activation device

Stargateactivationdevice.jpg

Device of unknown origin, perhaps Ancient, of which a wearer can wave their hand over, instantaneously locking the Stargate into a desired location. Evidence that this is Ancient technology is derived from the fact that allies of the Ancients, such as the Nox and Asgard, possess similar versions of the device.

A future device in possession by the S.G.C. (pictured) was gold with a green crystal. The Asgard version appears very much like an Asgard data stone.
