The scanner can be used to synthesize blueprints from salvaged technology, and to record alien biological data.

― PDA, Dialogue

The Scanner is a tool capable of scanning fragments, lifeforms, technology, the player, and other objects scattered around the world.

Usage

The Scanner can scan Flora, Fauna and Harvesting Nodes, adding their entries to the PDA. It is also used to collect fragments for blueprints; to acquire the blueprints of a particular item, the player must scan its corresponding fragments, the number of which varies for each object.

If the player equips a Scanner and points the crosshair at a scannable object, a spinning white circle appears in the middle of the screen and the name of the object or type of fragment is shown. The player can then hold RMB to scan the object. It takes about ten seconds to finish scanning; if scanning is interrupted, the player can resume scanning at any time with no loss of progress. The Scanner has a range of 5 meters.

If the Scanner is not out and the player looks at an object they have not yet scanned, a small Scanner icon will appear in the bottom right of the screen to inform the player.

Fauna can be scanned multiple times. The Scanner display will show "NORMAL" or "INFECTED" on its display for approximately 4 seconds each time a scan is made.

The player can be scanned, as well, by pressing the F key. It will give information as to whether the player is infected or not and, if the player is infected, shows the progress of the infection in the player's body. See the player page for further information.

The Scanner requires a Battery to operate, and will be unusable if its battery is depleted. Its battery can be replaced by equipping the Scanner and pressing the R key. It can also be recharged by using the Swim Charge Fins.

Trivia

The Scanner replaced the Fragment Analyzer and the Botanical Analysis Machine, which were Appliances and were only for analyzing fragments and scanning flora, respectively.
The Alterra logo is sported on the top right corner of the Scanner's screen.
