 Personal and professional electronics grow in complexity, convenience,​ and popularity from PL 5 onward. Often, having the newest electronic gear is seen as a status symbol. Everything from advanced communications gear to multi-use optics to a variety of sensor devices are quite easily available in the [[timeline|26th century]]. Personal and professional electronics grow in complexity, convenience,​ and popularity from PL 5 onward. Often, having the newest electronic gear is seen as a status symbol.

-===== ALL-PURPOSE GOGGLES (PL 6) ===== +  * [[all purpose goggles equipment|All-Purpose Goggles]] 
-[[all purpose goggles equipment]] +  ​* ​[[Blackout goggles equipment|Blackout Goggles]]
-Favored by craftsmen and technicians,​ the protective goggles that develop in the Fusion Age combine several technologies to produce a great all-purpose device. Protective goggles have automatic dimmers that protect the wearer from all forms of blinding light, including flash-bang grenades and similar phosphorescent explosives. Protective goggles shield the eyes from all forms of radiation, pollution, dust, contamination,​ loose particles, acids, and any other matter that could harm the eyes. Furthermore,​ they have built-in magnification lenses that provide a +2 bonus checks made to manipulate, build, or objects that are at least Tiny in size. +

-===== BLACKOUT GOGGLES (PL 6) ===== +
-[[Blackout goggles ​equipment]] are the PL 6 equivalent of night vision goggles more effective against standard darkness and the only means of seeing through the smoke generated by [[midnighter grenades ​equipment|midnighter grenades]]. The wearer can see in total darkness better than [[darkvision_mutation|darkvision]] (without the -4 penalty on Spot and Search checks), and the goggles do not require even a little light to operate. In total darkness (such as midnighter smoke), blackout goggles enable the wearer to see up to 60 feet, though only in black-and-white. +

-===== NEURAL SCRAMBLER (PL 6) ===== 
-The [[neural scrambler equipment]] is a restraint device used by many law enforcement agencies in the place of physical restraints such as hand-cuffs. The neural scrambler consists of a six-pronged device that, when placed over the head, interrupts brainwave activity. A character wearing a neural scrambler may not take any actions whatsoever, though she moves her normal speed under the command of an-other individual. When the neural scrambler is removed, the character has no knowledge of events that took place while she was re-strained.

-===== PROJECTILE DEFLECTOR (PL 7) ===== 
- 
-A defensive item that is in many ways the predecessor to the personal shield, the [[projectile deflector equipment]] generates a field of gravity-altering energy around its user. Often worn as a belt or other piece of jewelry, the device actually bends the path of incoming high-speed projectiles,​ making the target harder to hit. The projectile deflector grants a +4 deflection bonus to Defense against ranged attacks. Melee attacks are unaffected by this device. 
- 
-===== REMOTE RETINAL SCANNER (PL 6) ===== 
-Often installed in office buildings, government and military installations,​ and other high-security environments,​ the [[remote retinal scanner equipment]] resembles an Information Age camera. The remote retinal scanner can take an instantaneous retinal scan from any character or creature that passes in front of its lens, without the need for lengthy eye scans or processing. Remote retinal scanners are usually connected to computers capable of cross-referencing retinal scans with existing data bases.

-===== SOOTHER PULSE (PL 6) ===== 
-A small box that fits in one hand, the [[soother pulse equipment]] emits sub-audible noises and subtle vibrations that can soothe almost any animal. It carries in its memory banks the codes of pulses to soothe almost every known animal in the galaxy, and new pulses can be loaded into the device whenever they are discovered, A character using the soother pulse gains a +6 equipment bonus on all Handle Animal checks when dealing with an animal identified in the soother pulse'​s database.

-===== VIDEO PHONE (PL 7) ===== 
-The process for placing a [[video phone equipment|videophone]] call is essentially the same as that for a telephone. All of the same functions are available, in addition to still picture and video recording and viewing. In regions with an appreciable Grid, the videophone can even be used to access the Grid as a marginal GID. 
-Complementary to the mute function, the videophone also offers a blank screen function, allowing users to prevent their images from being displayed (or to transmit a still “wallpaper” or recorded video feed). 
-The Videophone require at least minimal Grid infrastructure to work. This limitation can be offset by adding +1 to the phone’s purchase DC and adding a micro-transmitter that allows the phone to communicate with similarly-equipped devices within 10 miles. 
- 
-**Video Cell Phone:** The video [[cell phone equipment]] works exactly like the earlier cell phone except for its improved ability to stream real-time video and installed marginal GID.
