'''Silimatic''' technologies use glass made from different types of sand to produce differing effects. Silimatic glasses can be used by anyone, but lenses can only be used by [[Oculator]]s. [[Alcatraz Smedry]] has drawn parallels between Silimatic technologies and [[Smedry Talent]]s in the past. He has also been able to increase the power of various Silimatic technologies▼

▲'''Silimatic''' technologies use glass made from different types of sand to produce differing effects. Silimatic
All types of Silimatic technology are made originally out of sand.
;Brightsand: Brightsand is one of the most common types of sand. It lets off a glow that causes other types of sand, or glass, to do strange things. Brightsand powers most silimatic technology.
;Dullsand: Dullsand is one of the only types of sand that don't do anything. The librarians have gone to great lengths to cover beaches in it to make sand seem common and boring, and thus of little value. It is possible that non-Silimatic glass is made of dullsand.
== Silimatic Glass ==
Types of glass include the following:
; Restoring Glass : Easily shatters at the touch of an Oculator, but restores itself when the Oculator moves away from it. Incredibly strong otherwise. Black in color.{{book ref|a1|4}}▼
; Recognizer's Glass▼
; Rebuilder's Glass▼
; Reinforcer's Glass: ▼
; Defender's Glass: Essentially protects structures inside it. Extremely strong.▼
; Snarer's Glass : Used for traps, however, each square can only go off once.{{book ref|a1|17}}▼
; Grappler's Glass : Clings to other surfaces, influencing gravity--used on the bottoms of boots to enable people to walk up surfaces. Often used by Alcatraz to walk on SIimatic vehicles such as the ''Hawkwind'' and ''Dragonaut''▼
; Inhibitor's Glass : Stops those touching it from using Silimatic technology or Smedry Talents▼
; {{anchor|Alivener's Glass}}Alivener's Glass: Also known as [[Glass of Alivening]], Alivener's Glass can create [[Alivened]] by storing part of a Dark Oculator's humanity, making the Dark Oculator less humane in the process.
▲== Silimatic Lenses ==
; {{anchor|Builder's Glass}}Builder's Glass: Builder's Glass is used as a building material. It is not as strong as Restoring Glass.{{book ref|a1|3}}
; {{anchor|Communicator's Glass}}Communicator's Glass: When broken in half, Communicator's Glass allows communication between the two pieces for 20 days. Usually, both halves must be activated in order to allow for communication.{{ref|text=This rule does not seem to apply to Alcatraz}}{{book ref|a5|1}}. In extreme cases, this glass can communicate one way with ordinary glass, and it can also be set to transmit one way.{{book ref|a5|1}}
▲; {{anchor|Defender's Glass}}Defender's Glass:
; {{anchor|Detonator's Glass}}Detonator's Glass: Detonator's Glass explodes. It can be set to go off within a certain area.{{book ref|a3|3}}
; {{anchor|Enforcer's Glass}}Enforcer's Glass: Enforcer's Glass is impossible to break, even with a Smedry Talent.{{book ref|a3|13}} It is used to make handcuffs.{{book ref|a1|17}}

▲; {{anchor|Grappler's Glass}}Grappler's Glass:
▲; {{anchor|Inhibitor's Glass}}Inhibitor's Glass:
; {{anchor|Illuminator's Glass}}''Illuminator's Glass'': ''Illuminator's Glass'' is an uncanonical name for the glass used to illuminate the trunk of clothes Alcatraz was trying on.{{book ref|a5|1}}
; {{anchor|Messenger's Glass}}Messenger's Glass: Messenger's Glass is used as a means of communication. The Librarians destroyed [[Mokia]]'s supply of Messenger's Glass.{{book ref|a4|No!}}
; {{anchor|Orientation Glass}}Orientation Glass: Orientation Glass influences the direction of gravity. It is used inside vehicles that might get upside-down.
; {{anchor|Protective Glass}}''Protective Glass'': ''Protective Glass'' emits a protective field capable of stopping a full [[Crystin]] punch. The exact name of this glass type is unknown.{{book ref|a5|Bob}}

; {{anchor|Transporter's Glass}}Transporter's Glass: Transporter's Glass is used in pairs. When activated at the exact same time, it can instantly swap the locations of two objects, usually glass boxes, that have exactly same size.{{book ref|a3|5}} If more than two identically sized transporter's boxes are activated at the same time, the occupants would be killed.
;Unknown: A type of glass used to warn of Librarian illusions in the ''[[Penguinator]]'''s cockpit.{{book ref|a5|Trillian}}
== Oculators Powering Silimatic Technology ==
During his time in [[Nalhalla]], Alcatraz discovers that Oculators can power Silimatic technology without brightsand.{{book ref|a3|14}} The amount of brightsand required to power it, though, correlates to how much of the Oculator's power is used.
