Gauntlet shields

A gauntlet shield or shield gauntlet was a type of armored gauntlet. A shield gauntlet consisted of a metallic gauntlet that contained a number of thin metal plates; when activated an articulated servo-joint would snap the metal plates outward, creating a metal fan that could be used as a physical shield.
