The geth "eye" emulates the quarians light on their masks.
Quarians and geth DO look a lot alike. If you put a metal plate where the visor would be, and get rid of the hood Quarians would look like a different kind of geth.
I do wonder why tough...the geth were made before the quarians were forced off-planet and had to use encolsed space-suits. Hence, before every quarian wore a helmet with a flashing light built in.
Presumably they had such suits already, as they would need to use them when on the Citadel etc.
"Presumably".
Really, I don't know how the hell BioWare managed to **** up the lore of the quarians immuno-deficiency so badly. It contradicts itself so many times over that I can't really see any of it as canon.
Let's just look over it:
1) It is described as being a weakened immune system because of sterility aboard the MF. This means they effectively have AIDS, since their bodies can't fight off contaminants.
2) It is described as being a hyper-active immune system because of dirtiness aboard the MF. This means the slightest exposure will cause their bodies to aggressively attack the contaminants, leading to debilitating sickness symptoms like fever, lethargy and hyperalgesia.
3) Aethyta says she remembers quarians without masks, but background info about Rannoch implies the reason for the quarians weak immune system is because they evolved to be symbiotic with the plant life on Rannoch due to an absence of insect life. So how can she know what they look life if the lore suggests they would require suits at all times anyway? (Unless she boinked one).
One more reason why they are the worst species.
