“Well, if I didn't see it with my own eyes, I wouldn't have believed it.” Dr. Beverly Crusher
The Original Props
The TR580 Mark VII is a standard Tricorder to which a specialized medical peripheral device has been added, allowing medical personnel to perform powerful medical sensor and analysis functions. Introduced in Star Trek: The Next Generation season 3, it became the signature Tricorder of Dr. Beverly Crusher throughout the remainder of the series.
The original props ranged from rudimentary non-functional resin items, with flat two-dimensional decals to suggest details, to more elaborate hero props made with vac-formed plastic shells containing a limited amount of integrated electronics. Different Mark VII Medical Tricorder props were produced at different times over several years, resulting in some variances among them.
The Replica
Factory Entertainment’s Mark VII Tricorder replica has been created after careful study of various source materials, including resources in the Paramount Archives and authenticated items in private collections. It is intended to capture the best features of all the different original Mark VII Medical Tricorder props in a single blended execution. The replica includes a removable Hand Sensor.
To replicate the effects seen on-screen, our replica uses a functioning LED screen with multiple user-selected animations, rather than the static slides used on the original props. None of the original props featured any audio. Audio has been incorporated into the both the Tricorder and the Hand Sensor to simulate the audio effects heard in the show, which were added in post-production as part of the soundtrack.
The body of the Medical Tricorder is cast in metal alloy. Other parts are formed from ABS plastic and acrylic. The body of the Hand Sensor is machined aluminum.
The Tricorder is powered by a replaceable LiPo battery and is rechargeable via an included USB cable. The Hand Sensor is powered by three LR44 batteries.
Each prop replica is supplied in an elegant wooden display case and includes a sequentially numbered metal plaque and COA booklet.
