The Psion emitter is a small electronic device which emits a random electromagnetic signal that mimics the neural bioelectrical signals produced by sophonts. A typical commercial psion emitter has a range of approximately 8 meters, though more powerful versions are available. It is powered by a small, replaceable battery that lasts for about an hour of constant use.
The device produces emissions that behave enough like the theoretical psion to trick detectors. It is known that individuals with psionic powers can detect psion emitters, but are rarely fooled by it.
The main function of a Psion Emitter is to trigger (or jam) a Psionicist Detector. Slightly larger versions are used to jam Neural Activity Sensors.
