Tech: Dedicated Energy Receptor (DER)

Dedicated Energy Receptor
Prerequisites: Sensor Theory, Passive Sensors.
Research Cost: Pending
Description
The dedicated energy receptor (DER) was a passive sensory device capable of detecting electromagnetic emissions in its surroundings. Using it, a skilled operator would be able to detect emissions from lasers, beacons and comlink transmissions. A DER concentrated its scanning in a narrow, focused beam and is intended to gather detailed, specific information on a previously detected target. Because of its narrow focus, a DER was of little use in early threat detection.
