A mass anomaly sensor was a device used to detect and track an object based on the object's density.[1] Personal-sized sensors were available.[2]
During the Idiran-Culture War, a starship-mounted sensor could detect an object with the density of a Culture Mind through over five kilometres of batholith.[1]
Anti-gravity could fool a passive sensor.[3]
