Nanotechnology

Nanotechnology is a form of intelligent nanites developed during the Golden Age to fulfill a variety of specialized functions. Individual nanotechnologies may also be referred to as "mites". . A system or colony of cytomachines is called an "ecome". At least some types required replication chambers to manufacture.

Known nanotechnology types include:


 * Medical nanotechnology: Injected into the body to repair physical trauma.
 * Tactical mite ecome: Unknown function, presumably a weapon. Part of Elsie Bray's arsenal when she attempted to sabotage the Deep Stone Crypt.
 * Olympus Tears: Unknown function. Diffused into the atmosphere of Mars by an unknown machine, attaching to powerful Cabal and Vex technology and recording data into a "cellular memory".
 * VIS(NU): Used as part of the containment system for the K1 Anomaly and brought to Europa as part of Clovis I's expedition equipment.
 * B-RA/MA: Unknown function, included in Clovis I's Europa expedition equipment.
 * SIVA: A general-purpose, self-replicating nanotechnology intended to supersede all previous nanotechnology types.
