A beguilingly simple arm computer and compad combination, Mercenary Arms made the gauntlet comp incredibly customizable to appeal to a wide range of users and their unique needs. With the militaristic lean common among the company’s products, the casing is made from druetium and a screen of solarium glasteel allows the comp to take a direct blaster hit or even a shot of ion energy and suffer minimal ill effect or continue working through many adverse environmental conditions.
The gauntlet comp natively hosts a bevy of communication and sensor options while tying into paired systems as a potential remote interface. Armor and slaved ships were the intended use with options to plug directly into systems to prevent local jamming from preventing communications, but an individual could use it with their speeder, droid, another computer, or as a control for networked amenities at home, along with many other unintended uses.
