The sonic screwdriver was a highly versatile tool used by many, but not all, incarnations of the Doctor. While early versions were used mainly for the picking of locks and for projecting sound so as to, for example, detonate bombs, by the time of the Ninth Doctor, the sonic was able to also be used as a sophisticated scanning device, with medical applications. Subsequent incarnations gave it even wider functionality, such as the ability to hack into computers, provide geo-location and actively defend against some types of assault weapon.
We like tracking our technology round these parts. Only problem is that the show is about a time travelling scientist. And he's spawned shows like Torchwood that are entirely focussed on alien tech. So there's a lot of tech sittin' around the joint. Be bold, though, and start your journey at category:technology.
Don't let the Second Doctor's bitchin' fool ya: he likes computers just fine. Maybe that's why one of our bigger tech categories is called precisely that: category:computers.
Sure, we all know about psychic paper. But do you know what a psychic credit card does? Well, do ya, punk?
