According to the pamphlet, "[[Anatomy of the Dalek]]", '''sense globes''' dotted the [[base unit]] of the [[Dalek]] [[casing]], ([[COMIC]]: ''[[City of the Daleks (comic story)|City of the Daleks]]'', [[PROSE]]: ''[[Prisoner of the Daleks (novel)|Prisoner of the Daleks]]'') and [[Davros' chair]].

[[The Doctor (Sympathy for the Devil)|The Doctor of a parallel universe]] once claimed that someone told him that "a [[Dalek (Masters of War)|Dalek]] can't change its bumps." ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[Masters of War (audio story)|Masters of War]]'') The [[Sixth Doctor]] of [[N-Space]] once referenced the same saying, but noted that the bumps were actually quite easily replacable, and that it was a rubbish saying.

The reconstructed scrap [[casing]] of the [[Reconnaissance Dalek]] was distinguished in that it had only three sense globes on each panel of the base unit, making a total of 42 sense globes. ([[TV]]: ''[[Resolution (TV story)|Resolution]]'') Similarily, the [[British Proto-Dalek]]s had only three sense globes on each panel, with a curved, armoured layer replacing the upper set of sense globes.

Though sense globes were typically arranged in even [[panel]]s that flared out slightly down a Dalek's [[base unit]], arrangement was not uniform across all Daleks.

([[PROSE]]: ''[[The Guide to the Dark Times (short story)|The Guide to the Dark Times]]'') | ||
Numerous Dalek variants had [[gold]] sense globes, such as [[bronze Dalek]]s, ([[TV]]: ''[[Dalek (TV story)|Dalek]]'' et al) a [[Dalek Supreme (Planet of the Daleks)|Dalek Supreme]] of the [[Supreme Council]], ([[TV]]: ''[[Planet of the Daleks (TV story)|Planet of the Daleks]]'') as well as two identical Supreme Daleks, ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[The Genocide Machine (audio story)|The Genocide Machine]]'', ''[[Emissary of the Daleks (audio story)|Emissary of the Daleks]]'') the red and gold Supreme Dalek casings first used during the [[Second Dalek War]], ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[Out of Time (audio story)|Out of Time]]'') [[Dalek X]], ([[PROSE]]: ''[[Prisoner of the Daleks (novel)|Prisoner of the Daleks]]'') the [[Imperial Dalek]]s ([[TV]]: ''[[Revelation of the Daleks (TV story)|Revelation of the Daleks]]'' et al) and their [[Special Weapons Dalek]]s, as well as [[Davros]]' Emperor Dalek casing. ([[TV]]: ''[[Remembrance of the Daleks (TV story)|Remembrance of the Daleks]]'') Many of the [[Dalek Emperor]]'s casings, such as those of the [[Emperor of the Restoration]] ([[PROSE]]: ''[[The Guide to the Dark Times (short story)|The Guide to the Dark Times]]'') and the [[Dalek Empire]] during the [[Last Great Time War]], also had gold sense globes. ([[TV]]: ''[[The Parting of the Ways (TV story)|The Parting of the Ways]]'') Uniquely, by the time of the Great War, the [[Dalek Prime]] had a pair of sense globes which were coloured gold, above a row of black sense globes. ([[TV]]: ''[[The Evil of the Daleks (TV story)|The Evil of the Daleks]]'') | |||
Some Daleks had silver sense globes, such as the Dalek Scientists based on [[Asteroid Theta 12]] during the Last Great Time War, ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[A Thing of Guile (audio story)|A Thing of Guile]]'') and the [[Supreme Dalek (New Dalek Paradigm)|Supreme]], Scientist, [[Strategist Dalek|Strategist]] and [[Drone Dalek (New Dalek Paradigm)|Drone Daleks]] of the New Dalek Paradigm. ([[TV]]: ''[[Victory of the Daleks (TV story)|Victory of the Daleks]]'') The [[Dalek Time Commander]]s of the Restoration Empire had silver sense globes with a blue ring around the edges. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[The Restoration Empire (short story)|The Restoration Empire]]'') [[Davros' chair]], which closely resembled the base unit of a Dalek, also had silver sense globes, ([[TV]]: ''[[Genesis of the Daleks (TV story)|Genesis of the Daleks]]'' et al) as did [[Davros' chair (Palindrome)|the near-identical chair]] of [[Davros (Palindrome)|an alternate universe Davros]] after he began merging with echoes of his other selves from across the [[multiverse]].

The sense globes of | The sense globes of the two Daleks that masqueraded as the "[[Ironside Project|Ironsides]]" were coloured in the same shade of [[green]] as their casing. ([[TV]]: ''[[Victory of the Daleks (TV story)|Victory of the Daleks]]'') The dark [[green]], [[robot]]ic [[Proto-Dalek]]s, which were constructed by the [[British]] and [[German]]s as part of the [[Dalek Project]] during the [[First World War]], had different base units; the [[British Proto-Dalek]]s had only three sense globes on each panel of their base unit — with a curved, armour plate replacing the upper set of sense globes, while the [[German Proto-Dalek]]s' bottom half was adorned with several flat, hexagonal plates in place of the usual sense globes.

[[ | ==Function== | ||
[[File:Self extermination.jpg|thumb|The "[[Metaltron]]" self-destructs. ([[TV]]: ''[[Dalek (TV story)|Dalek]]'')|alt=|left]] | |||
Sense globes were evidently the instruments of the Dalek [[self-destruct]] process; the [[bronze Dalek]] named "[[Metaltron]]" ejected all its sense globes to create a field in which it was completely destroyed. ([[TV]]: ''[[Dalek (TV story)|Dalek]]'') {{Pryce|c}}, however, once stated that they could detect [[ion]]-charged emissions and operate as [[etheric beam locator]]s at a distance of up to twenty thousand [[light-year]]s — for which reason he sought to acquire some himself. ([[TV]]: ''[[The Curse of Fatal Death (TV story)|The Curse of Fatal Death]]'') | |||
On multiple occasions, sense globes functioned as sockets for cables and wires that extended from a Dalek's casing. For example, in the [[26th century]], a [[Command Dalek (Abslom Daak... Dalek Killer)|Command Dalek]] was connected to its [[Dalek command ship (Abslom Daak... Dalek Killer)|base ship]] via numerous wires and cables which were fitted to the sense globes of its base unit. ([[COMIC]]: ''[[Abslom Daak... Dalek Killer (comic story)|Abslom Daak... Dalek Killer]]'') Similarly, during the [[41st century]] conflict against [[human]]ity, a [[Chief Strategist]] of the [[New Dalek Paradigm]] was connected to its command [[Starship|ship]] via cables that extended from the Strategist's sense globes. They interfaced the Chief Strategist into the ship's computers, and even allowed it to see the battle from the point of view of the drones fighting. ([[COMIC]]: ''[[The Only Good Dalek (comic story)|The Only Good Dalek]]'') Furthermore, during the [[Dalek Project]] performed by a team of Daleks of the New Dalek Paradigm on [[Earth]] in the [[First World War]], a [[Black Dalek (The Dalek Project)|Black Dalek]] was connected to [[Survey Ship Sigma]]. ([[COMIC]]: ''[[The Dalek Project (comic story)|The Dalek Project]]'') | |||

In their place, Thay was given crude iron replacement plates. The [[Tenth Doctor]] attempted to remove them too late as the lightning struck him, resulting in [[Dalek-Human]]s infused with [[Dalek Sec]]'s altered [[DNA]] as well as the Doctor's [[Time Lord]] DNA.
