The Forerunners also used hard light technology to create protective personal shields, such as the [[Z-90 Photonic Coalescence Emitter/Aegis]] as it is known by the UNSC, more commonly known as the "hardlight shield," which could be deployed in the battlefield by fighting units like [[Promethean Knight]]s. After encountering such technology in [[2557]], UNSC forces were able to adapt these shields for use by [[SPARTAN Program|Spartan]] supersoldiers.<ref name="Official Site"/>
