The omniband utility collar features a 'fingerprinting' system that recognises it's user, and adds a security function that prevents unauthorised users from being able to access it's functions. A detailed permissions system allows it's primary user to add secondary or guest users, whilst permission heirachies allow for the overriding of permissions based on ranking. The device itself hooks directly into the user's nervous system through non-penetrative means. This allows it to directly feed sensory input into the mind, most notably visual and audio, whilst receiving inputs from the user's body. An example would be displaying a screen and keyboard to the user, whilst receiving movements of their hand and claws for input.

The device itself features:

• A local and long distance communication system.
• A virtualised computer capable of storing files.
• A localised digitized inventory system.
  • This allows the user to store and deploy physical items without pockets.
• A digital deployment system.
  • This allows the user to receive supplies from their command.
• A localised holographic display system.
  • This allows the user to display datastreams from the device to others.
