Doctor's Crypt Entry Scanner

A small handheld device the Doctor carries into the crypt, its narrow viewing corridor casting a faint blue-white glow as it sweeps the air. The casing is worn from repeated use, humming intermittently as it feeds data into console systems back at the control room. The Doctor deactivates it with a sharp click at a crucial moment, the device going dormant as the plan shifts from reconnaissance to immediate action.
