Star Trek: Deep Space Nine, Tricorder Electronics

original movie prop

In the DS9 episode Paradise, a Mk VII tricorder is shown with the upper shell opened, exposing very similar electronic components; this particular piece may have been a backup set, and was given to Doug Drexler by the DS9 propmaster.

Resin panel with machined grooves, bent brass and aluminum tubing, metal dials, microswitches, acrylic faceplate, printed circuit traces, and attached 'optical' cables.

From Propworx and the collection of Doug Drexler.
