The Ancient Control Chair is an Ancient technological device in the TV series Stargate SG-1 and Stargate Atlantis. The chair has come in handy in defending Earth and Atlantis.
Spoiler Warning: Plot details and/or information about the ending follow. If you wish to enjoy the work first, stop reading here and return at another time.
Operation
The ATA gene is required in order to work the Ancient Control Chair. The gene allows the user to connect to the chair's mental interface. The control chairs are responsible for defenses of the Ancients Outposts and cities. The main defense is a large supply of Ancient drone weapons. The chair can also activate holographic systems, allowing the user to project maps, and show sensors reading. It is designed to be powered by a ZPM, although the Atlantis expedition and Antarctic outpost have been successful in powering the device with a Mark II Naquadah Generator.
Similar Technology
The Ori ships have a chair similar to the Ancient Control Chair, that control the ships. The chairs are keyed to their unique brain physiology of the Priors
