The Quantum Translocator is a small box-like device developed by the [[United Nations Space Command]] with the use of [[Forerunner]] technology. Upon activation of the Quantum Translocator, a [[slipspace portal]] is placed. When the user activates the device a second time, they are instantaneously [[Slipspace translocation|translocated]] through the portal, returning to where it was placed.{{Ref/Reuse|HCSTwitch}}{{Ref/Reuse|S4Sandbox}}

The Translocator was developed by the UNSC thanks to research and reverse-engineering efforts on [[Slipspace translocation|translocation]] systems employed throughout [[Forerunner]] installations, and those used by modified [[Promethean]] constructs under [[Created]] control. [[Created uprising|Recent events]] have given the UNSC reason to accelerate their research and development on such prototypes, presumably over earlier, similar technologies such as the [[MX-1050 Quantum Plane Translocation Marker-Local/Hybrid]] device, though they are still a long way from become standard-issue.{{Ref/Twitter|Id=Twitter|Halo|1672273327774113792|Halo|Quote=TECH DATABASE - QUANTUM TRANSLOCATOR<br>The Quantum Translocator is the result of accelerated and ambitious research into Forerunner slipspace translocation technology. #FictionFriday|D=24|M=06|Y=2023}}

==Gameplay==

The Quantum Translocator is a piece of [[Power-up|power]] [[equipment]] in ''[[Halo Infinite]]'' released in [[Season 04: Infection]]. When the player activates the equipment the first time, a portal is placed at their current location and a "thread" of energy follows them as they move about the map.{{Ref/Reuse|S4Sandbox}} To signify to the player that they have placed a portal, a glowing energy effect can be seen around the edges of the player's screen. When the player activates the equipment the second time, they are instantly teleported back to the position where they placed the portal, allowing them to escape an unfavorable situation. To clue in enemies on where the player went, a "thread" of energy trails back to the location of the portal.{{Ref/Reuse|HCSTwitch}}{{Ref/Reuse|S4Sandbox}} Upon returning to the their original position, the energy thread no longer follows the player. The thread will reappear when they place down another portal, which requires the player to wait until the equipment finished its cooldown timer. Unlike the other power-ups in the game, [[Overshield]] and [[Active Camouflage]], the Quantum Translocator can be used more than once per pick-up.{{Ref/Reuse|S4Sandbox}}
