Virtual reality pod
From SGCommand
VR Pods were a technology developed by the Volsinii and were large devices designed to sustain as well as preserve those who were encased in them. Tentacles would plug into the users temple, abdomen and spine where they would provide the necessary life support functions while the users mind entered a virtual reality environment.
While inside the pod, the user was in a state of suspended animation and were unaware of the world around them. The mind itself would exist in the virtual world run by the Keeper. People were capable of dying within the virtual environment of the pods.
