The "Cryogenic Freezing Chamber" is the main technology utilised by Applied Cryogenics for their services and has been in use, apparently unchanged, for over a thousand years. Invented sometime before the end of 1999, chambers put the subject into a kind of suspended animation unlike that used by 20th century cryonicists, which freezes the occupant, whether human, robot or dripping alcohol perfectly in place within seconds and allows them to resume where they left off seconds or millennia later. Settings for millions of years also exist, but it is unknown whether the device has an upper limit to the time an occupant can be frozen safely. These chambers are self powered, which could suggest they were installed at Applied Cryogenics after 1997's power failure.
