The At-cyb husher mike was an internal comlink manufactured by Crozo Industrial Products. It used the latest advancements in cybernetic miniaturization and was surgically implanted into the user, inserted near the larynx. Microsensors were implanted inside the mouth.
To send a signal, the user would subvocalize the message by subtly replicating the jaw, tongue and vocal cord movements of normal speech. No sound was produced during this process, and the minimal movements of the jaw and tongue meant that it often went unnoticed by observers. The movements of the subvocalization process, and the vibrations from the vocal cords, were translated into electrical impulses by the husher mike, which were in turn converted into a comlink transmission by . The signal was capable of being received by an comlink monitoring the broadcast frequency within three kilometers.
The system could not receive audio transmissions, meaning that a separate comlink or transmitter had to be carried if the user wanted to receive messages. The husher mike was used by individuals would wished to avoid detection by audio surveillance systems such as "". However, military-grade could intercept the husher mike's transmissions.
The basic At-cyb husher mike was visible and cost three thousand credits. An upgraded model with an encryption module could be implanted directly under the skin for an extra two thousand credits. This model was only detectable with medical or weapons scanners.
