A modern Localized Artificial Gravity (LAG) system is a fictitious but common system in Ships and Space stations of Star Citizen which is normally comprised of three parts:

A particle generator that converts energy (from Power plant s) into a useful form,

Gravplating panels that consume said energy, and

Conduits connecting the particle generator and the gravplating panels.

This system is used to generate an artificial "gravity" field to eliminate the atrophic effects of long-term exposure to low gravity and to allow for crew and passengers of equipped ships and stations to walk normally as though they were on a planet - nominally Earth at 9.8 m/s 2. LAG systems common in the UEE work at high latency, and the field "lags" if the ship performs maneuvers, losing strength and effectiveness while trying to adapt to new forces and directions and so causing people and items inside the ship to become "loose" and be more subject to inertia during a turn.

In the Xi'an Empire (SaoXy'an), artificial gravity technology is greatly advanced to the point of common use in mundane objects.
