Polymer-composite fiber matches scanner characteristics of whatever it is in contact with.
Lightweight and durable material perfect for clothes lining.
STRENGTHS
Scanner Baffler: Security-weave is a fantastic material for slipping items past detection systems since its exterior matches the qualities of whatever it is in contact with.
WEAKNESSES
Is That A Blaster In Your Pocket?: Security-weave won't stop a good pat down, and even scanners may detect what's hidden behind security-weave if they notice any suspicious weight or mass.
DESCRIPTION
Security-weave is a polymer-composite fiber created by Captain's Choice and designed to allow the wearer to slip small items past scanner systems undetected. Rather than trying to block or scramble scans, however, security-weave accomplishes this by blending into the background of whatever it is in contact with. The exterior surface of security-weave will match the temperature, electromagnetic signature, and even scent of whatever it's closest to, keeping whatever is inside the weave safe from scanning. Sealed pockets and pouches lined with security-weave will appear empty on scanners, if they even appear at all, as they will blend into the background of the surrounding material. The best results come from laying the material close to a person's skin so it blends into the body.
Three-in-one propulsion system covers repulsorlift, ion engines, and hyperdrive needs for starships.
Scalable and adaptable to different ship classes and systems.
Fast, simultaneous activation for repulsorlift, ion engines, and hyperdrive.
Adjustable power flow between propulsion systems.
STRENGTHS
All-In-One Propulsion: The Tri-Drive covers your repulsorlift, ion engine, and hyperdrive all in one convenient package, which saves interior space and expense having to buy all three.
Power-Shifter: Not only are the power systems on the Tri-Drive highly adjustable, but you can move power between systems not in use to boost their power, like diverting energy from the hyperdrive to the ion engines.
0 to 60,000: The Tri-Drive is designed to kick in fast, and since it controls multiple systems your ion engines and hyperdrive can be warmed up and ready to go at full power before you clear the landing pad.
WEAKNESSES
Total System Failure: Since the repulsorlift, ion engines, and hyperdrive are all routed through this one propulsion system, any breakdown or damage to one can impair the others, or take the whole system down.
Power Hog: Repulsors, ion engines, and hyperdrives all require large amounts of power to run, especially all at once, so you'll either need to invest in a good reactor or a lot of refueling.
Tough Tinkering: Not only is the Tri-Drive hard to maintain, since it takes wear and tear from all three propulsion systems, but trying to make modifications to any of those systems is difficult due to how interconnected they are.
DESCRIPTION (Describe some of the histories behind the submission. Give us some idea of how it might perform its function, what it excels against and what some limitations of it are. This is where you talk about your idea, flesh it out over at least a good-sized paragraph, and address some of the ways it might be used or abused. For especially powerful or ambitious submissions, a very thorough description is recommended.)
