The Hazardous Environment Rebreather and HUD or HER-HUD

The HER-HUD or Hazardous Environment Rebreather and HUD is a specialized piece of Starfleet equipment used by personnel when operating in Hostile planetary environments, where the only real hinderance to said operations is the composition of the atmosphere.

The device is a full face mask, with a built in micro environmental system that filters and regulates the atmosphere provided to the wearer. It contains a micro capsule of triox, which can be released into the bloodstream of the wearer to boost their oxygen intake in the event of a sudden oxygen deficiency or mask breach.

Because the mask is somewhat restrictive to the wearer's eyesight, the HER-HUD is equipped with a built in tricorder and enhanced visual display that floats superimposed upon the inside of the display lenses. The interface is tailored to each wearer, and utilizes visual cues and iris tracking to implement interface with the mask, leaving the hands free for other tasks.

In 2414, the crew of the USS Rosenante wore the HER-HUD on the surface of the Rogue Planet Solyon when they were required to rappel down an artificial volcanic vent in order to allow them to reach an artificial facility buried beneath the surface of the planet.


The HER-HUD was first seen in the USS Rosenante Mission The Third Law
