| ==Technology and Functions==
| |
| The sonic screwdriver is apparently the product of [[Gallifrey]]an technology since other Time Lords (i.e. [[Romana]]) use the device and understand it enough to construct their own versions of it. The name of the device itself suggests that it functions using soundwaves, although the actual workings of the device have never been explicitly explained.
| |
| | |
| The different versions of the Doctor's sonic screwdrivers have exhibited different capabilities and uses, such as the interception of signals ranging from transmat beams to conscious thought; medical diagnostics and repair of organic parts; cutting, but also re-attaching together materials such as barbed wire; operating Earth machinery such as computers and even cash machines; creating a spark to light a candle. Although it is primarily a tool, it can also be used as a defensive weapon. However, according to the [[Tenth Doctor]], the device cannot be used to wound or kill living things. ([[DW]]: ''[[Doomsday]]'')
| |
| | |
| Sonic screwdrivers and similar technology also cannot unlock a [[deadlock seal]]. ([[DW]]: ''[[School Reunion]]'')
