Translation Spheres are special translation devices carried by the Ood. In order to use it, an Ood presses a button on the sphere, and speaks into the tube, which must be in their mouths for the sphere to work.
- It is unknown if the tube of the sphere is permanently fixed in an Ood's mouth or not, as no Oods are seen without the tube in their mouths.
These translation spheres can be clipped on the Ood's shirt when they are not holding them. (DW: The Impossible Planet / The Satan Pit)
As a weapon
When activated, translation spheres are extremely dangerous to non-Oods. If it touches the forehead of a Human for example, the forehead will light up, crackle with electricity, and the human will drop to the floor, dead.
There are two ways that the Ood can use it as a weapon. First they can throw it at victim, let it spring back, and catch it. Or they could simply place it on someone's forehead. (DW: The Impossible Planet / The Satan Pit)
Whether this is a normal feature or a trait given to the Ood by the Beast is unknown but since the spheres are used as weapons by the Ood on the Ood-Sphere in 4126, as well as the fact that the spheres are connected to the Ood where they once had a smaller brain, it is likely that the Ood always had the ability to use spheres as weapons, possibly using their telepathic powers to damage a victims brain via a sphere. (DW: Planet of the Ood)
