Memory Scanner
Memory Scanner.
First Appearance: " Understudy."
Details: This set of headphones was worn by Nikki Rogers in "Understudy," and again by psionic Andrea Marshall in " Where Evil Dwells." As Emma DeLauro explained to Nikki, Emma gave the wearer a telempathic boost while they focused on memories of an event. The scanner then converted optic memories into digital images and projected them onto a computer screen where they could be processed and enhanced.
Technobabble: Jesse: "All that’s gonna happen is we’re gonna put this contraption on your head, and you relive the fight in the street, okay?"
Emma: "And then I will give you a telempathic boost and the machine converts optic memories into digital images."
Jesse: "If we’re lucky, we’ll see what you saw, okay, maybe a feature of the shooter or something."
Emma: "All you have to do is relax and remember."
Nikki: "And you’ll see everything I saw?"
Jesse: "Well, only what you focus in on. Which is why we need you to zero in on the facial features of the shooter."
Trivia: Perhaps because Andrea was already a telepath, the psionic boost that Emma had given to Nikki was not necessary when Andrea was undergoing memory enhancement.
