The device itself bears little in common aesthetically with devices used by either faction. However, the geometric angles of the device vaguely resemble those used in Forerunner technology. In addition, the shield it generates is spherical and made of tesselating hexagons, which is similar to shields used by [[Sentinels]] and [[Protectors]]. As such, the Bubble shield may be a Forerunner device used by the Covenant, which the UNSC acquired for research. This would fit with the description of the similar [[Drop Shield]], which is " | The device itself bears little in common aesthetically with devices used by either faction.
