*Transporter operations consist of four major stages:
TARGET SCAN AND COORDINATE LOCK: Programming of destination coordinates, range and relative motion scanning, confirmation of suitable environmental conditions, and diagnostic procedures.
ENERGIZE AND DEMATERIALIZE: Molecular imaging scanners derive a realtime quantum-resolution pattern image, while energizing and phase transition coils convert the subject into a debonded matter stream.
PATTERN BUFFER DOPPLER COMPENSATION: The matter stream is held in a pattern buffer, compensating for Doppler shift.
MATTER STREAM TRANSMISSION: Point of departure from ship through one of seventeen emitter pad arrays to transport destination. *Source: Back of card
