No information or synopsis yet available.
- No workable extant examples exist in Charted Space although artifacts are rumored to exist.
- Some prototype have appeared in newscasts, but all appear to have major drawbacks and function with no reported reliability.
- The Zhodani can already achieve some functions of this projected machine with their psionic technology.
Description (Specifications)
The first successes with matter transport as energy are anticipated to occur at technology level-16, but the transport results in considerable randomization of molecular patterns and is thus limited to raw materials only.
- Some project that matter transport using matter transmutation appears at tech level 17, but it is limited to solely inanimate objects.
- Some project that practical matter transport for life forms (using portal/circumvention techniques) does not occur until tech level 18.

History & Background (Dossier)
Some theories advocate the idea that matter transport implies energy to matter creation. Thus at TL-16 any raw material that can be transported can also be created from energy. This does not apply for circumvention.
