Spiraltrapper
Spiraltrapper is a term used in speculative engineering and fiction to describe a class of capture devices designed to intercept and contain objects moving along spiral trajectories. The concept emphasizes selective engagement and controlled containment, aiming to minimize collateral disturbance while securing the target for handling or analysis.
Design and operation of a Spiraltrapper typically centers on a spiral capture chamber and an inlet system
Variants and applications span basic prototypes to field-deployable units. Mk I models focus on core capture
As a concept, Spiraltrapper remains a theoretical or fictional construct frequently cited in world-building, engineering design
