Arumi/Scanning Goggles
Focus
Personally-made goggles of leather and hand-ground strengthened glass lenses.
Effect
Various forms of detection as needed: Magical casting/Etheric disruption detection (Prime), Matter compositional (Matter) and strength (Matter + Forces) analysis, visual thermometer/light meter/multimeter (Forces), Dark/Heat/X-Ray vision (Forces, depth dependent on successes), Alien infestation and dimensional anomalies (Spirit)
Difficulty
Base difficulty: 4. Always used with unique focus for a -1 modifier, so will usually have difficulty 3 in practice.
Theory
Specially-ground pairs of lenses are able to guide light into a narrow gap between them. With the proper polarity mix, etheric excitation can be produced that varies with environmental conditions according to the desired characteristic curve
