The '''Automated Plasma Turret''' is used to stop players from going out of [[Halo 3]] [[multiplayer]] levels.
 
It is not in [[campaign]]. The only level that has them is [[Snowbound]], although [[Sandtrap]] has a minefield that works the same way.
 
They are of [[Covenant]] technology and surround the perimeter of the map.
 
Whenever a player attempts to get outside the level, they are gunned down by the automated turrets.<ref>[http://www.bungie.net/News/TopStory.aspx?link=ilikethisgame Bungie.net]</ref>
 
It is also still unknown why these types of turrets haven't been encountered yet.
 
They function towards the same end as an invisible wall, to keep players within the believable confines of the map.
 
So far, the only things that can block a turret's rounds are objects added through forge.
 
The turret's rounds fire through Bubble Shields and Deployable Covers, and will still hurt players when Invincibility is turned on or if they have overshields, a behaviour similar to the [[Brute Landmine]].
 
In terms of story value, these turrets may have been set up by the Covenant to protect the base from intruders.

==Activation==
 
This turrets use the motion trackers to know when did the enemies aproach to them.
 
This devices are presumably to prevent intruders to get inside the fortress, as they can be activated only from outside.
 
==Trivia==
 
* The Automated Turret may be related to the [[Covenant Air Artillery]]. It may also be produced with it, too.
