Hyperspace Metrics

With carefully-controlled emitters projected into hyperspace, forces can be controlled and shaped in ways that seem impossible.
The requirements for emitters and how they work varies by technology. Different restrictions on geometry, power use, drawbacks, and dangers. Universally, an "etched hyperspace" field anchored relative to the generator confines the force in realspace.
Generally, when the field is overpowered or disrupted, the stored energy is released unpredictably. The generator can be damaged or destroyed, along with anything nearby.

Utility

Endless uses.

Manufacturing

Generally, high-energy exotic matter factories are needed to install and anchor the emitters in hyperspace. If damaged, they will need similarly difficult repairs.

Parent Technologies

• Metric Engineering

Children Technologies

• Hardlight

Access & Availability

Simple forms are extremely accessible, sometimes even in things like toys.

Discovery

A more recent discovery, relying on exotic matter research and warp technology. Pushing an emitter into hyperspace is more complex than pushing a ship there.
