Sense globe: Difference between revisions

Dalek [[incubation unit]]s consisted of a spherical [[maturation chamber]] mounted on a truncated Dalek base with only two rings of sensor globes. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[Dalek Combat Training Manual (novel)|Dalek Combat Training Manual]]'')

Many Dalek variants had [[black]] sense globes, including the first [[Dalek Supreme (Return to Skaro)|Dalek Supreme]] - according to one account - ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[Return to Skaro (audio story)|Return to Skaro]]'') [[Grey Dalek]]s including [[Renegade Dalek]] [[Dalek drone|drones]], ([[TV]]: ''[[Remembrance of the Daleks (TV story)|Remembrance of the Daleks]]'' et al), ([[TV]]: ''[[Genesis of the Daleks (TV story)|Genesis of the Daleks]]'' et al) [[Dalek Supreme Type 3|Gold Supreme Dalek]]s, ([[TV]]: ''[[Day of the Daleks (TV story)|Day of the Daleks]]'') the [[Type V Dalek|Silver Dalek]]s that [[Exxilon Incident|travelled]] to [[Exxilon]], ([[TV]]: ''[[Death to the Daleks (TV story)|Death to the Daleks]]'', [[AUDIO]]: ''[[The Dalek Protocol (audio story)|The Dalek Protocol]]'') the [[Dalek Time Controller]], ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[Lucie Miller (audio story)|Lucie Miller]]'') the [[Black Dalek Type VIII|Black Dalek]]s contemporary to the [[bronze Dalek]]s, ([[PROSE]]: ''[[Engines of War (novel)|Engines of War]]'') including [[Dalek Sec]] ([[TV]]: ''[[Army of Ghosts (TV story)|Army of Ghosts]]'', ''[[Doomsday (TV story)|Doomsday]]'', ''[[Daleks in Manhattan (TV story)|Daleks in Manhattan]]'') and the [[Overseer (Planet of the Ogrons)|Overseer]], ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[Planet of the Ogrons (audio story)|Planet of the Ogrons]]'') a Silver Dalek with the shape of a bronze Dalek, ([[PROSE]]: ''[[The Whoniverse (novel)|The Whoniverse]]'') and the [[Eternal Dalek]] of the [[New Dalek Paradigm]]. ([[TV]]: ''[[Victory of the Daleks (TV story)|Victory of the Daleks]]'', ''[[The Pandorica Opens (TV story)|The Pandorica Opens]]'') The [[Dalek Executioner]]s of the [[Restoration Empire]] had black sense globes with a [[red]] ring on their edges, ([[PROSE]]: ''[[All Flesh is Grass (novel)|All Flesh is Grass]]'') while the sense globes of the same empire's [[Scientist Dalek|Dalek Scientists]] had the opposite [[colour]] scheme, although the two rows of sense globes at the back of the left and right sides of the Scientists' base units had thicker, spiked black rings. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[The Guide to the Dark Times (short story)|The Guide to the Dark Times]]'') The Time Lords specifically identified the black sensor globes of the Exxilon Daleks as "multiphase" improvements to earlier blue globes. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[Dalek Combat Training Manual (novel)|Dalek Combat Training Manual]]'')

Several Dalek variants, however, instead had light [[blue]] sense globes, such as the [[silver]] [[Dalek War Machine]]s, ([[TV]]: ''[[The Magician's Apprentice (TV story)|The Magician's Apprentice]]'', ''[[The Witch's Familiar (TV story)|The Witch's Familiar]]'') of the [[Skaro City Dalek]]s ([[TV]]: ''[[The Daleks (TV story)|The Daleks]]'') and the [[Dalek Earthforce]], including the [[Dalek saucer commander (The Dalek Invasion of Earth)|Dalek saucer commander]] and the [[Dalek Supreme Type 1|Supreme Controller]], ([[TV]]: ''[[The Dalek Invasion of Earth (TV story)|The Dalek Invasion of Earth]]'') the Silver Daleks with slatted [[weapons platform]]s, ([[TV]]: ''[[The Witch's Familiar (TV story)|The Witch's Familiar]]'' et al) and the [[Black Dalek (The Apocalypse Element)|black-domed Silver Daleks]], ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[The Apocalypse Element (audio story)|The Apocalypse Element]]'' et al) including those of the [[Emperor's Personal Guard]] immediately prior to the outbreak of the [[Great War (The Evil of the Daleks)|Great War]], ([[TV]]: ''[[The Evil of the Daleks (TV story)|The Evil of the Daleks]]'') The sense globes of the Dalek War Machines among the Daleks that pursued the [[First Doctor]], [[Ian Chesterton]] and [[Barbara Wright]] across [[time]] and [[space]] were coloured dark blue instead, ([[TV]]: ''[[The Chase (TV story)|The Chase]]'') as were the sense globes of the Dalek drones of the Restoration Empire. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[The Guide to the Dark Times (short story)|The Guide to the Dark Times]]'') The Time Lords associated blue globes with the Daleks' "early period", describing them as "low-frequency". ([[PROSE]]: ''[[Dalek Combat Training Manual (novel)|Dalek Combat Training Manual]]'')

Numerous Dalek variants had [[gold]] sense globes, such as bronze Daleks, ([[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 [[Dalek Supreme Type B|two identical Supreme Daleks]], ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[The Genocide Machine (audio story)|The Genocide Machine]]'', ''[[Emissary of the Daleks (audio story)|Emissary of the Daleks]]'') the [[Dalek Supreme Type E|red-and-gold Supreme Dalek casings]] first used during the [[Second Dalek War]], ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[Out of Time (audio story)|Out of Time]]'') the [[Dalek Inquisitor General]] designated [[Dalek X]], ([[PROSE]]: ''[[Prisoner of the Daleks (novel)|Prisoner of the Daleks]]'') the [[Necros Dalek]]s, later [[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 Type 1|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 [[Dalek Prime]]'s golden [[Emperor's Machine]] ([[COMIC]]: ''[[Genesis of Evil (comic story)|Genesis of the Evil]]'') and the golden [[Emperor Type 2]], ([[COMIC]]: ''[[Invasion of the Daleks (comic story)|Invasion of the Daleks]]'') the golden [[Emperor of the Restoration]], ([[PROSE]]: ''[[The Guide to the Dark Times (short story)|The Guide to the Dark Times]]'') and the bronze [[Emperor Type II]] casing used by the [[Dalek Emperor in the Last Great Time War]], also had gold sense globes. ([[TV]]: ''[[The Parting of the Ways (TV story)|The Parting of the Ways]]'') Uniquely, the Dalek Prime's [[Emperor Type 3]] casing 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]]'') A [[Grey Dalek (Defender of the Daleks)|Grey Dalek of the Restoration Empire]] sported [[yellow]] sense globes. ([[COMIC]]: ''[[Defender of the Daleks (comic story)|Defender of the Daleks]]'') The Time Lords believed that, at least in the case of the Imperial Daleks, their gold globes were indicative of a notion of [[prestige]] more than anything else. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[Dalek Combat Training Manual (novel)|Dalek Combat Training Manual]]'')

[[Dalek attack ship]]s sported a high frequency sensor globe array. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[Dalek Combat Training Manual (novel)|Dalek Combat Training Manual]]'', [[TV]]: ''[[The Day of the Doctor (TV story)|The Day of the Doctor]]'')

The [[Dalek Prime Minister]] was situated in a cylindrical cabinet of transparent [[finitoglass]], a [[life-support tank]] connected to a [[data feed]] which was itself linked to an array of white high-intensity sensor globes at the top of the structure.
