5) The clips are similar to the detachable cube sensors of some Starfleet medical tricorders, but more powerful because of their larger input/receptor areas. The three clips can be placed in a triangle around some object for more detailed scans.<br> | 5) The clips are similar to the detachable cube sensors of some Starfleet medical tricorders, but more powerful because of their larger input/receptor areas.

The bright green dots enable optical data transfer (instead of the wireless required when a clip is detached.)<br> | 9) These inserts magnetically adhere to identical ones on PADDee itself, to hold attached clips in place.

PADDee benefits from some non-standard anti-hacking protections, but Dueld is extremely cautious about its virtual health all the same, especially given the periodic attacks on databases anywhere with records of Dueld's existence. | PADDee benefits from some non-standard anti-hacking protections, but Dueld is extremely cautious about its virtual health all the same, especially given the periodic attacks on databases anywhere with records of Dueld's existence. |
