Transmat is a type of matter-transport technology used by various factions.

Overview[edit]

Transmat is used for both short and long distance teleportation. Both living creatures and objects can be transported through transmat via an Orbital Grid, after being marked for it. Independent Transmat maximum range seems to be a few hundred meters, as seen when The Guardian infiltrated Oryx's Dreadnaught and had to boost at full speed to barely make it in transmat range of the Hive ship. It is standard procedure to establish a safe transmat area for troop deployment in newly explored areas.[1]. Technology and Paracausal powers can also be used to inhibit transmat in certain areas.[citation needed]

Transmat technology is used by the Vanguard, with Ghosts often trasmatting Guardians and their equipments out of their Jumpships, as well as the Fallen and Cabal, who are seen using it to retreat from failing engagements.
