[It's certainly not an idea she hasn't considered herself, it's an idea she often comes back to, considering all its possibilities and its problems.]
I'm pretty sure it could be powered by ki. In fact, any machine could be powered through ki, it's an idea we have often considered. But it's tricky. And by itself it wouldn't stop the stockholders from trying to use the machine, they would be unable to because it certainly would require a huge amount of ki for it to work, but it wouldn't stop them. As far as I know about ki it's something every living being has, even if most rarely come to gain control of it. And while it can be renewed with a good amount of rest, any machine powered by it should be built so it uses the smallest amount of ki possible to its fullest potential, otherwise we would have a machine that works, but forces the user to rest for a good while after using it. And that may not be wise when talking about dimensional travelling, you never know when you're going to land in a dangerous situation.
And it's not as if saiyans don't get tired as well, so even restricting its use to you guys would be tricky.
