T'au
,no edit summary
The Tau have a solid grasp on their own technology and have quickly developed to become one of the more technologically advanced races in the [[galaxy]]. Over the span of only a few millennia, they developed from simple hunter-gatherers using stone tools on [[T'au (Planet)|T'au]] to an interstellar civilization.{{Fn|15c}} They have displayed high levels of proficiency of advanced technological concepts such as [[Plasma]] technology,{{Fn|15e}} [[anti-grav|anti-gravitic engines]],{{Fn|15d}} [[Drone|robotics]],{{Fn|15e}} and [[Artificial Intelligence]].{{Fn|15e}} They are capable of great feats of stellar engineering, such as creating artificial worlds and orbital docks.{{Fn|15f}} Tau technology is highly dynamic, and is developing at a rapid pace compared to the other races of the galaxy.{{Fn|15c}}
The T'au are known to incorporate technological designs from other races to improve their own capabilities. This was displayed when they were introduced to [[Ion weapon]]s by the "[[Demiurg]]", a [[Prospect]] of the [[Leagues of Votann]] and quickly produced their own models.{{Fn|23}} Some Earth Caste scientists have expressed an eagerness to learn the advanced technological secrets of the [[Aeldari]]. The [[Asuryani]]'s [[Wraith Construct|wraith construct]]s being a particular peice of technology they see as potentially being applied to their own less-advanced battlesuits.{{Fn|409}}
