I found it interesting to see that when I went to look at the Gateworld episode guide there was nothing to read on "The Sentinel". It got a low rating but I found the machine working together with the body to be fascinating. It is my opinion that the sentinel looks into the mind of the human and determines who and where the targets are at.
I do have another question though. According to Marul the Latonans gave up technology in order to practice matters of the spirit and mind. If this was the case I can understand how they would be unable to fix or understand their technology. However, wouldn't they be spiritually and mentally savvy in general? For example if we look back on the episode "Spirits" we see that Tonane has no understanding of advanced technology. Though he understands the mind and has a certain amount of wisdom about him. The Latonans on the other hand are slightly idiotic, very nice people but more like children than people.
I don't know, that aspect of the episode never really made sense to me.
