Opinions about the cyber gear "scanner" (gehirneimer.de)

I have reservations of the effect of the scanner cyber gear from the sci fi compendium:

Scanner: This implant senses the composition of known matter or energy up to 50 yards distant. The target does not have to be visible, though certain types of matter or energy may interfere (GM’s call)

If I as a GM rule that it is tied to the notice skill it is not really that powerful and it would have been noted in the ability if that was the intention, but if I take it for what it says, it will be very very strong for "just" 1000$

What do you guys think? How would you interpret the text and do you think it is too powerful?

That’s how I read it, yes.

Ok, that would indeed make it more balanced than what I thought 🤔
