These tiny nanomachines have been injected into the thermoelectric power core at the heart of the Sleeper drone. Inside each one is a small array of chemicals and components, all of which play a role in producing the often violent chemical reactions that provide power to the drones. Only the most advanced Sleeper drones are known to have had their power cores enhanced in this way. Even though they all share the same fundamental role, thousands of minor variations in the machines that have emerged after millennia of use, as they adapted to the minute changes in chemical composition and electrical flux. How exactly they came to do this remains a mystery, but it is clear that the current product is the result of countless iterations. Although salvaged easily enough, they have been built from the ground up to be integrated into other Sleeper technology. Trying to enhance any engineering systems outside of the Sleeper's own thermoelectric power cores with the current level of technology would represent an impossible reverse-engineering task.

Recent developments in salvager technology have allowed a greater variety of ancient components to be recovered from the wrecks of Sleeper drones. Initial scans of this salvaged Scorched Microgravimeter indicate that it includes technology that might be able to find a home in the sensor equipment of capsuleer ships. Engineers across the cluster have begun attempting to reverse engineer the Sleeper techniques used in this component, with Caldari researchers expressing particular interest.

RCM play an important role in stabilizing a ship's alignment prior to, and in the first moments of, interstellar warp. The Sleeper drone RCM system works in an entirely different manner to contemporary Empire-based technology and yet the angles of alignment produced by their final calculations are always identical. Even though their inner workings remain a mystery, the matrices operate in a predictable and reliable enough fashion to form the basis of a new, slightly more efficient jump drive.

This white, dusty substance was extracted from the center of high impact craters in the Sleeper drone's armor. When mixed with other materials it forms a stiff resin that can either be used to hold various pieces of hull sheets together or to coat them for additional protection against radiation and heat.

Used in conjunction with other equipment inside the capsule, neurovisual input matrices serve the vital function of translating external stimuli into visual data. Ship identifier tags, hostile threat indicators and tactical overlay interfaces are all typical examples of N.I.M at work. The Sleeper variants of these matrices are not substantively different from contemporary devices, needing only a few supplemental components and some minor reprogramming before they can operate in much the same way. The only major deviation is in the energy efficiency. The Sleeper device is almost a thousand times less demanding on a ship's power core.

The backbones of communication across New Eden, fluid routers play a crucial role in all faster-than-light (FTL) transmissions. The Sleeper drones have been equipped with much the same communications equipment as contemporary starships. The only major difference observable with the Sleeper Fluid Routers is in the way transmissions are translated. The drones must be talking in their own proprietary language.

Most of these tiny circuits have fused together from the heat and force of the Sleeper drone's explosion. The detonation of the drone's power core must have been immense to have had such an effect on these resilient nanostructures.

Barely salvageable from the wreck of a Sleeper drone, this device could have been something much more impressive when it was fully functional. In its current state it is almost unrecognizable, having been scratched, burned and even chemically melted. It looks like it was housed next to the drone's power core, which would explain the extreme heat damage it suffered when the drone exploded. Stranger yet, it almost seems as if it was lined with some kind of triggered-release corrosive. The self-destruct mechanism – if that's even what it was – only caused so much damage, and the acid didn't burn cleanly through the center of the drive. Even as a shadow of its former self, it can be combined with other components to form a fully functional warp drive. Being capable of this, even in such a bad state, strongly suggests that the device was capable of other types of more advanced interstellar travel. Why a Sleeper drone was equipped with this level of technology remains a mystery.

These advanced nanoassemblers appear to be able to change their molecular structure on the fly, adapting to incoming damage. Without any understanding of how to properly operate them however, they only offer their default formations. Even in such a state, they add a significant amount of resilience to armor plating.
