Heru'ur in ring transporters
Ring transporters are a form of transport used by a number of species to transport people over short distances, as from a starship to a planet below, by surrounding the transportees with a number of rings which demolecularize the objects, then transfering them via a matter stream to the intended target. They are also used onboard some Goa'uld spacecrafts in manner similar to elevators. In one instance, they killed Ra's Anubis-headed guard when Colonel Jack O'Neill activated the rings while he was on the edge of the markings. (Stargate)
Some species have the ability to hide their ring transporters for secrecy or surprise, such as the case of the Tok'ra and the Ori. (SG1: "The Tok'ra, Part 1", "Origin")
Ring transpoters were built by the Alterans and always seek out the nearest ring transporter, this was used by Vala to find Gerak's cloaked cargo ship. The Ori also use the rings, but they are six in number instead of five, and having Ancinet writing on them. They are, however, compatible with the ring transporters the Ancients and Goa'uld use.
