Indeed.

Actually you are both kinda right. It obviously is an updated version of the Stargate called the Starshot. The structure originally stood upright and had a large rubber band stretched between the uprights. To use the device, one sat in a leather cup at the center point of the rubber band and... Well, you get the picture.
The system was still in testing when a fatal design flaw was found and the project abandoned.
