The Lammasteen were a race of aliens, who used "non-technological" technology.

History

When the Eleventh Doctor was stranded on 21st century Earth, he constructed a scanning device out of junk and household utensils, evoking the Lammasteen's devices. When he shared his knowledge with Craig Owens, Craig understood its function. (TV: The Lodger)

The Eleventh Doctor also used the technology of Lammasteen to create a rudimentary generator out of an egg-beater and corkscrew when the DreamLord turned off the power in the TARDIS. No explanation for the technology was given at the time. (TV: Amy's Choice)
