The hypothetical devices that would allow users to perceive, navigate, or manipulate the probability dimension, effectively letting you see the paths not taken or, if you're brave enough, switch to them mid-stride. These technologies include probability goggles (showing overlays of every possible version of the present moment, which is overwhelming and deeply unhelpful when crossing the street), branch-shifters (devices that let you jump to a timeline where you didn't send that embarrassing text), and the ever-popular "quantum eraser" that claims to delete unfortunate outcomes from your personal probability tree (it doesn't work, but it sells well on late-night infomercials).
Spacetime-Probability Technologies *Example: "He bought a spacetime-probability technology headband that promised to show him all possible futures. When he put it on, he was immediately overwhelmed by 47 versions of himself making different lunch choices. One version had soup, one had salad, and one had apparently decided lunch was irrelevant and was just napping. He took the headband off and had a sandwich, hoping it was the optimal branch."*
