Psionic Shield Helmet

From Traveller Wiki - Science-Fiction Adventure in the Far future

A Psionic Shield Helmet is a battery powered helmet creating a weak electrical field at human brainwave frequencies; psionic-talented individuals perceive this as static, which prevents undesirable telepathic influences or psionic assaults. The helmet gives little physical protection, but it gives the wearer significant defense against psionic assault. Shielded individuals cannot be detected by characters possessing life detection, nor can they receive telempathic or telepathic suggestions, nor can they be probed or have their thoughts read. The electronics of a psionic shield helmet are relatively simple, but one can break down or be sabotaged; a small meter on the unit allows testing of the helmet’s effectiveness.

[edit] Meta

This device gives the wearer an automatic psionic strength rating of 15 for purposes of defense against psionic assault only.
