This strengthening of the pilot's abilities is done by forcibly increasing and speeding up the neurotransmissions in the pilot's brain. [19] The AMBAC system is a fundamental technology that allows for thrusterless manoeuvring in the zero-G environment of space by mobile suits by means of precise movement control of their limbs in the Gundam universe. AMBAC is by its nature limited to re-orienting the unit about its center of mass, and is not a substitute for propulsion. but it included more advanced technology like built-in Minovsky Flight Units. The mono-eye is mounted on rails, and can slide back and forth to cover a wide field of view. In case of emergency, the inhabitants of a space colony can escape using small spacecraft stored in the colony's outer walls. A cousin to the wing binders is the tail stabilator, an elongated binder that is also mounted on the mobile suit's back and can serve to increase the unit's AMBAC capabilities. These technological settings have also since influenced a lot of anime and manga to have their own technological background to a certain degree. This device can also be used to establish a contact link for voice communication. Category:Cosmic Century Technology. It takes a strong pilot to use the system and even then the newtype girl maybe still against the pilot. The main use of the Minovsky particle was in combat and communication. MS Encyclopedia, ISBN / 4-89189-336-2, Bandai, 10th Feb, 1988. Due to the various advantages of the movable frame, it soon become the standard mobile suit construction method during the Gryps War, and the obsolete monocoque and semi-monocoque construction was eventually phased out. The bio-sensor could also have a rather surprising side effect when the pilot was mentally and emotionally focused enough (usually when angry or upset) to cause the bio-sensor to amplify the power, speed and strength of the mobile suit for a short period of time. While this could be done for space ships and naval ships, this ruled out the use of precision guided weapons, such as guided missiles. Category:Cosmic Era NS Technology. According to Gundam Sentinel Special Edition, the beam smart gun is designed to bend the output beam by up to 20 degrees. The mobile suit does not need to spend much energy to compress the Minovsky particles; instead, most of the compression was done by the mother-ship and the mobile suit only needed to provide minimum energy for triggering the final degeneration energy.[16][17][26]. Also, significant quantities of helium-3 were recently discovered on the moon, although there is certainly much more on Jupiter. The Newtype Destroyer (or NT-D) System is an anti-Newtype system developed by the Earth Federation and used on the RX-0 Unicorn Gundam. A Psychoframe can project a Psychofield, which can happen when two Psychoframes are near, this Psychofield is a space where the human consciousness can manipulate the world regardless of the laws of psychics. This reactor, although designed by Dr. T.Y. After the war, when the linear floating seat and 360-degree panoramic screen become standard equipment, this problem is addressed by turning the entire cockpit assembly into a spherical escape pod which can be ejected in emergencies. The viewpoint is that of the mobile suit's head, and the image is carefully edited to remove the mobile suit itself. This page was last edited on 27 December 2022, at 21:27. The Psycoframe is a powerful variation of the psycommu system. Using this interface a Newtype pilot can direct remote weapons, and operate huge mobile armors, by thought alone. Although Minovsky particle interference does have some effect at infra-red wavelengths, enemy warships and mobile armors still register as heat sources. Welcome to r/Gundam! This has influenced later series to include their own reasoning to rationalize the existence of humanoid fighting vehicles. 0079 for their Mobile Suits. Mobile suits performing AMBAC motions would presumably move similarly to present-day astronauts performing extra-vehicular activity: both typically having roughly similar body structure, their use of that mass to control their rotation would presumably be similar, even if calculated by different means. An electromagnetic catapult installed on the surface of a planet, moon, or other celestial body, which is used to accelerate objects to escape velocity. The protons and helium ions produced by these fusion reactions can then be directed by a magnetic field to generate thrust. Akin to the EXAM system's aggression and tendency to go berserk, the HADES can activate without the pilot's consent when it detects a perceived threat, regardless of it being an ally or foe. 0081 -The Wrath of Varuna-, Stampede: The Story of Professor Minovsky, Mobile Suit Gundam F91: Formula Report 0122. This super-efficient design was only a fifth as large as an equivalently powerful Minovsky-Ionesco reactor; for this reason, it was adopted for use on mobile suits as the standard power plant. This allowed the Pegasus-class to enter and exit earth's atmosphere and to fly while inside the atmosphere. According to the Gundam Century, MS encyclopedia 2003 and Gundam Officials, the Minovsky Physics Society was formed in U.C.0045 at the space colony Side 3. This mechanism has far better fuel efficiency than a thermonuclear rocket engine or a chemical rocket, but due to its relatively low thrust it's best suited for massive, slow-moving objects such as the asteroid Axis. Instead of the conventional magnetic field, this improved version of the Minovsky-Ionesco reactor used an I-field to confine and compress the reactor fuel, triggering a fusion reaction. However, seeing the horror of the Zabi family's militaristic regime, Minovsky defected back and offered his expertise to the Federation. [2], The latest robot technology in Japan is also influenced by Gundam, due to its fictional technologies' being highly adapted from real-world science,[11] and the Universal Century technologies including space colonies and mobile suits are also viewed academically as to what they can do in real life. It burst, causing Kacricon's Marasai to plunge into the atmosphere. The mobile suit's internal cooling systems must also be engaged to deal with the heat that penetrates the air field. This became known as the "Minovsky Effect". For example, if we place a person in a micro-gravity environment where friction is negligible (i.e. The space colony (precisely space habitat) technology in Universal Century is referenced from the real world projects proposed by Gerard K. O'Neill in his book The High Frontier: Human Colonies in Space. | Anime Amino", Beyond the Time ~Mbius no Sora wo Koete~, https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Gundam_Universal_Century_technology&oldid=1129940757, Short description is different from Wikidata, Wikipedia articles that are excessively detailed from April 2012, All articles that are excessively detailed, Wikipedia articles with style issues from April 2012, Wikipedia introduction cleanup from April 2012, Articles covered by WikiProject Wikify from April 2012, All articles covered by WikiProject Wikify, Articles that need to differentiate between fact and fiction from April 2012, All articles that need to differentiate between fact and fiction, Articles with multiple maintenance issues, Articles with unsourced statements from July 2022, Articles containing Japanese-language text, Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike License 3.0. Notice in real life there is a similar experimental particle that could do the same thing in few thousandth of a second, which is still not practical but proves the theory to be correct. Because of the way Minovsky particles react with other types of radiation, radar systems and long-range wireless communication systems become useless, infra-red signals are diffracted and their accuracy decreases, and visible light is fogged. As its name implies, the bio-computer is similar in structure to a human brain, and its operating processes resemble human thoughts and feelings. 0100, designers begin to consider shifting systems like generators and thrusters outside the mobile suit itself. The main use of the Minovsky particle was in combat and communication. According to the official guide of Mobile Suit Gundam, Gundam Century and Gundam Officials, the Minovsky Physics Society, while working on the reactor, encountered a strange electromagnetic wave effect in U.C.0065 within the Minovsky-Ionesco reactor that could not be explained by conventional physics. They have also influenced creations in other Animation series. While a normal aircraft obtains lift from the difference in airflow speed between the upper and lower surfaces of its wings, a wave rider flying at supersonic speeds concentrates the shock waves under its lower surface and obtains lift from the resulting pressure, essentially riding on these shock waves. Minovsky Ultracompact Fusion Reactor Armaments 2 x Head Vulcan Gun 2 x Beam Saber/Dagger System Features Armor Series Cyclops Phase Poseidon Phase Dryad Phase Magic Phase Optional Equipment Beam Machinegun Shield Armor Gundarium Alloy Appearance Storyline Mobile Suit Gundam: Fusion Vs. [Source] During the One Year War, Zeon and Federation mobile suits utilized monocoque and semi-monocoque construction respectively, with machinery placed inside an armored "outer shell" akin to an exoskeleton. The MS-11 Act Zaku, the first Zeon mobile suit to incorporate magnet coating technology, used field motors instead of the traditional fluid pulse system. A device that generates lift from shock waves like those produced during atmospheric entry. The joints of Zeon mobile suits are driven by a fluid pulse system, which used a pulse converter to turn the energy produced by the atomic reactor into pulses of pressure within a fluid. This system uses an external power source - namely, a powerful laser - to heat a spacecraft's propellant. A design concept conceived in the early UC 120s through the development of the Formula 91 Gundam. The AMBAC system also allows the center of mass to shift outside of the body. Due to the repulsive and electrostatic forces between the Minovsky particles, this lattice functions as a kind of a force field, which is referred to as an I-field. A skilled pilot can use this crude device to deflect enemy attacks, but in the hands of a novice it's little more than dead weight, so designers sometimes opt to omit the shield and devote the equivalent mass to heavier armor for the mobile suit itself. When mobile suits come into direct physical contact with each other, or with other vehicles, sound can be transmitted between them via vibrations in their outer armor. The process was first tested on the RX-78-3 "G-3" Gundam, then applied to the original RX-78-2 Gundam, later being added to all future Mobile Suits. The disruption of electromagnetic radiation is due to the small lattice of the I-field creating fringes that long wavelengths cannot penetrate, and that diffract wavelengths that have similar distance with the fringes. Written by mechanical designer Katoki Hajime, summarized both in- and out-of-universe technologies of the Universal Century, sourcing from Gundam Century, Gun Sight, VF-1 Valkyrie, MS Graphical Guide 1~3, MSV Technical & History 1~3. It improves the response time, and allows the use of complicated fire control system as well as remote weaponry. A helium-3 atom is fused with a deuterium atom (heavy hydrogen) to form the stable helium-4 and a single proton. Traitor to Destiny: Blue Wings of the AEUG, Traitor to Destiny Extra Compilation: Mace of Judgment, Chars Deleted Affair: Portrait of Young Comet, Battlefield Record U.C. In the world of the Universal Century, communication between ships, mobile suits, and the like is greatly complicated by the widespread use of Minovsky particles. A standard piece of mobile suit technology, the balancer, sometimes called balance controller or auto-balancer by different authors, is the device responsible for keeping a mobile suit upright. Once their propellant is exhausted, the sturm thruster units are detached and discarded as dead weight. Although this could be viewed as following the Star Wars trend, nothing similar has started before the 1981 publishing of Gundam Century[2]. These Sub Flight Systems, or sled, come in both atmospheric and space versions. Another version of the I-Field Generator but allows the user to redirect incoming beam weapons fire back at targets. The normal suit includes life-support and communications equipment, and can be fitted with a vernier backpack for zero-gravity maneuvering. [23], The only counter measure to the "M" particle in the series was to install bulky and expensive shielding on all electronic equipment, but only to counteract the effect it had on electronic circuitry. These form-fitting space suits provide a minimum of impediment to the pilot's movements. However, it had the same weakness as all other I-field Generators - the generators tend to overheat and thus force cooldowns. To fix this, the Magnet Coating process was created. Also allows the user to use wire-guided weapons. The Gundam Wiki is a FANDOM Anime Community. This reactor was "radical" because it was the first "clean" nuclear reactor, emitting zero neutron radiation. timeline, space colonies are placed at the five Earth-Moon Lagrangian points. Thus, they are immune to effects of N-jammers, as fusion reactors lack free neutron to disrupt! Another weakness is that the I-field generator has an operating limit. Minovsky and Dr. Ionesco. Ultracompact Minovsky Fusion Reactor 0 The system made use of the wings' mobility for the transformation during mobile suit mode as AMBAC limbs and further increasing the number of limbs for the AMBAC system. This system yielded a higher operating speed than hydraulics, and lower weight and greater structural simplicity than electric motors. Should one be found, the NT-D System activates and turns the Unicorn Gundam into its "Destroy mode", improving its stats overall and allowing it to take control of Newtype weaponry used by others and turn them against them. The AMBAC system coordinates movements and micro-movements precisely, allowing a continuous balance and stability without expending reaction mass. Each colony can support millions of people, and they're grouped into clusters called Sides, each made up of between 35 and 40 colonies and housing a billion or more people. Minovsky made mobile suits feasible. Their research was devoted to the development of a nuclear fusion reactor. Minovsky in his earlier days when he was serving the Earth Federation, was still a piece of black box technology and rendered him a heretic in the classical physics community (where classical in the Universal Century includes the modern physics of today). Designed as an anti-newtype system, the system however has the trapped soul of a young newtype girl who wishes to kill herself. Only a handful of reckless pilots, like Char Aznable, Paptimus Scirocco and Haman Karn, are willing to forfeit the protection of the pilot suit in order to avoid this minor inconvenience. However All Record Breaker units, their spare parts, and all data on the "wings of light" were lost. When these particles are scattered in high densities, they render radio communication impossible. Thanks to their increased generator output, the scaled-down mobile suits of this era are able to use beam technology for defensive purposes. A cousin to the tail binder is the wing binder, equipped on most transformable mobile suits with waverider mode as wings. Infra-red sensors can be used for long-range enemy detection. They are equipped with a small beam cannon and an energy cell to propel the funnel when it is operating. Corodal Carbon. A detachable booster that can be installed on mobile suits and mobile armors. Not wanting his rival Amuro Ray to be left with an unsatisfactory unit for their final fight, Char leaked the plans to Anaheim and allowed it to be used for the RX-93 Gundam. These space boats can hold more than a dozen passengers each, in addition to two pilots, and are equipped with handy manipulator arms. The Minovsky particles produced as a byproduct of the helium-3 fusion reaction were recycled to keep that reaction going. A lightweight type of normal suit designed for combat pilots. Numerous shock absorbers are installed throughout a mobile suit's body, and the linear floating seat where the pilot sits is itself mounted on an electromagnetic shock absorber. AMBAC is by its nature limited to re-orienting the unit about its center of mass, and is not a substitute for propulsion. Because of the way Minovsky particles react with other types of radiation, radar systems and long-range wireless communication systems become useless, infra-red signals are defracted and their accuracy decreases, and visible light is fogged. With the development of a new generation of highly compact mobile suits after U.C. The Federation did not know of the existence of this variant of Gundarium until Anaheim Electronics gives them theRMS-108 Marasaias a political gesture. Thousands of fluid pipes, finer than human hairs, transmitted these pulses at supersonic speed to the rotary cylinders which drove the joints. A compound weapon whot combine the functions of Muramasa Blaster and Peacock Smasher. space), and ask him to place his left arm to his chest then swing it out to the side, the resulting inertia of the arm movement would result in the rest of his body turning the other direction in order to conserve angular momentum. This provides the basis for the miniaturizing of fusion reactors installed in mobile suits since a controlled I-field can block the infra-red waves. The bio-computer is originally intended to help the disabled, but its development is ultimately funded by the Earth Federation Forces, who hope to employ it as a mobile suit control system and install it in the F91 Gundam for experimental purposes. These devices house both propellant tanks and powerful rocket thrusters, enabling the mobile armor to accelerate rapidly on its way to the battlefield. In the original Mobile Suit Gundam series, Char Aznable commented that the way to avoid a beam rifle is to avoid its being pointed at you. The amount of thrust depends on the exhaust velocity and the rate at which propellant mass is consumed, and since the former factor is subject to strict technological constraints, mobile suits must carry large quantities of propellant to sustain them throughout extended battles. 1, Cities in the sky, Kofu Culture Imagine Publish, Inc., Hobby Japan Feb, 2005 issue, Ball special, Mobile Suit Gundam 00 Special report, Gundam Kyrios section, Gundam Sentinel special edition Gundam Wars III, ASIN: 4499205301, (Dai Nippon Kaiga Co.
