DescriptionThe Holo-Gauntlet was the brainchild of Confederate Scientest Bioh Lomarr.She realized the need for an handheld system to allow civilians and military forces to interact with the computer systems and machines used at the time.
The Holo-Gauntlet would remain in use throughout the history of the Varanus,overtaking all other platforms of handheld devices capable of interacting with machinery.Today it's use is popular among the Imperium being used by it's citizens in all walks of life.Be they military,nobility or civilian.
Due to how easy it is to modify and use,it has become popular among many new species both inside the Imperium and outside as the Varanus began to sell these gauntlets for use without fear that their product would be stolen and manufactured by their enemies.It's easy configuration allows it to be modified for whatever the user requires {within it's operating limits of course}
Most of these gauntlets are inserted in power-armour or on an glove with some form of external battery running through the implant or laced through the armour.
