Purpose Of Chest Display? What's It For?

[MikimB]

Hello my fellow members!

I know Boba's chest armor has an read out light display as well as other Mandolorian armors but I don't know what the purpose of that display is. I was asked once and didn't know what to say. I've tried looking it up but I don't get the answer that I'm looking for. All I'm getting is what the sequences should be and who to get them from. I don't want to look like a fool dress as Boba and not know what I'm wearing. Does anyone know?

Thanks!
Jesse

From what I understand it is a life support display. At least that's what I'm telling people. Sounds legit

heh i had the same thing happen to me at an event. and i flat out said..honestly..i have no idea lol. They got a kick out of it, but i did feel kind of dumb having this costume and not having any idea at all what the display is "for" lol Life support read out/display does sound good to me though lol.

Kids are hilarious when they point at every piece on the suit and ask, "what's that for....what's THAT for..." Too cute. "That's my flamethrower. I use it to BBQ ewoks."

For life support...so if a fallen mando is found they can see at a glance if he is dead.... mando's never take off their helmets around others including other mando's...

I read that in 'starwars the bounty hunter code'

Good book

I have told people "heart rate monitor" before.

Keeping the helmet on is important.

Boba sells advertising space on his chest, and it's an obscure message that reads:
"Be sure to drink your Ovaltine."

But I think I read somewhere (a million years ago) that this piece of medical equipment called an infusion pump
was a possible source of the chest readout. So maybe heart monitor or life support isn't so far off!

Yeah life support systems readout is what I had heard.

It's there so Bounty scum get distracted by a fancy light, while he is lining up his shot to disintegrate them.

I never really knew ether, I just say its boba's version of dog tags and life support readouts.
