~~'''Electromagnetic sensor'''~~ allows the player to detect [[robotic|robotic]] creatures within ~~an omni-directional~~ radius of 9 tiles regardless of light level or [[Properties#Occluding|occluding]] objects. Similarly to {{~~favilink|Heightened Hearing~~ |Heightened Hearing}}, the implant only provides an outline of nearby robots, preventing the usage of [[looking|look]] for additional information. The ~~Implant~~ is not guaranteed to immediately identify ~~entities~~, with some detected [[robots|robots]] initially being represented by ~~the~~ {{qud char|&K|?}} tile, which may take multiple turns to be fully identified. If ~~an entity~~ leaves the implant's radius for any reason, they may need to be identified again.

===Advantages===

*Only costs 1 license point and can be installed into any ~~cybernetic~~ slot, allowing a high degree of flexibility.

*Only costs 1 license point and can be installed into any [[cybernetics|cybernetics]] slot, allowing a high degree of flexibility.

*Relatively easy to find or purchase.

*Can help prevent deadly early game ambushes from {{favilink| ~~Chaingun Turret~~|plural}}.

*Can help prevent deadly early game ambushes from {{favilink|chaingun turret|plural}}.

*Immune to EMP blasts.

*Immune to [[EMP]] blasts.

===Disadvantages===

*Disrupts ~~Auto~~-~~Explore~~ and cannot be deactivated without uninstalling.

*Disrupts auto-explore and cannot be deactivated without uninstalling.

*Takes up a ~~Cybernetics~~ slot which could be replaced with the similarly functioning but broadly more useful {{~~Favilink~~|Penetrating Radar}}

*Takes up a cybernetics slot which could be replaced with the similarly functioning but broadly more useful {{favilink|Penetrating Radar}}.

==Tips==

*~~Entities~~ detected by the implant can be manually fired upon~~, this~~ works with {{favilink|phase-adaptive scope}}, allowing the user to attack visible enemies through walls.

*Creatures detected by the implant can be manually fired upon. This works with {{favilink|phase-adaptive scope}}, allowing the user to attack visible enemies through walls.

* Unlike penetrating radar, this implant is capable of detecting creatures through {{favilink|forcefield|plural}}, letting the user use a phase-adaptive scope to target {{favilink|chrome pyramid|plural}} from a safe distance through walls.

* Unlike ~~Penetrating Radar~~, this implant is capable of detecting ~~entities~~ through {{favilink|forcefield|plural}}, letting the user use ~~Phase~~-~~Adaptive Scope~~ to target {{favilink|chrome pyramid|plural}} from a safe distance through walls.
