The design consisted of small cylindrical blue devices that worked together, to create the containment field.  Each device needed to be squeezed on the top and bottom, until it gave a small whir and glowed bright green.  The device was then buried in the sand at a shallow depth.  After three or four years, the devices decomposed.

After trials, it was discovered that sand became slush after a year or so.  There was conjecture that the devices may work in harder, clay like soils, but that was never tested.
