In the 32nd century, a checkpoint was placed at the entrance to the Mercantile in Requiem, Hima. This checkpoint was manned by regulators who were assisted in their duties by drones. In 3188, Cleveland Booker and Michael Burnham attempted passing through this checkpoint. The drone scanned each of their left sleeves for a piece of technology which identified them as couriers. Unlike Booker, who passed the scan, Burnham failed the scan and was initially denied entrance because she had no identification.
