The Visualiser could "tune in" to events all over the [[universe]] in many time eras. The [[First Doctor]] said that the Visualiser converted "[[neutron]]s of [[light]] energy into electrical impulses" and that it could only show events in the past. ([[TV]]: ''[[The Chase (TV story)|The Chase]]'') However, [[Faction Paradox]] used a Time-Space Visualiser (presumably a different model) to forecast [[Fitz Kreiner]]'s future, showing him an image of himself as [[Father Kreiner]]. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[The Ancestor Cell (novel)|The Ancestor Cell]]'') [[Izzy Sinclair]] used the Time-Space Visualiser to play various [[video game]]s, such as ''[[Happy Deathday]]'', which involved the Eighth Doctor and his past incarnations.
