Behavioral restraining bolt

A behavioral restraining bolt is a piece of Goddard Futuristics neurotechnology invented by Miranda Pryce. It makes a person docile and obedient by "nurturing certain thought patterns and deleting the others". 
== Properties ==
Restraining bolts are controlled remotely through specific radio frequencies. 
Duplicate blood negates the effect of the bolt. The concentration necessary to reach this effect is relatively low, as demonstrated by the effects of one syringe each of Lovelace's blood in Minkowski, Eiffel, and Jacobi's systems over the course of "Idle Hands" and "The Devil's Plaything."
== Series Uses ==
In "A Place for Everything," it was revealed that this technology was initially used on the crew of the Hermes (although they were later upgraded to a more heavy-duty, permanent version.) The technology is then used on Minkowski, Eiffel, and Jacobi.
In "Volte Face," Mr. Cutter asks David Clarke to keep one at the ready in case it would be needed to silence Andrea Nash; however, it is not used.
