iBorg R&R
OUT OF CHARACTER INFORMATION
Using Aurna Vern's previous experience and the experience of Lance of Dreams, both Tanlab Industries and IBorg's Augments worked together to create a device that would allow one to take control of a droid or starfighter. The key to this is that in the augment is a processor that restricts the amount of information passed to the host at once to stop them from being overloaded with information.
- Intent: Allow the wearer the ability to link with, perceive with, and control at least one other droid body remotely.
- Image Source: N/a
- Canon Link: N/a
- Permissions: Alli Vern for the collab
- Primary Source: Restraining Bolt, Baktoid Electronic Warfare Cybernetic Enhancements, Psicom 1260 Interface, The Liberation Neural Piloting Interface, Neural Interface Device
- Manufacturer: iBorg Prosthetic Augments and Tanlab Industries
- Affiliation: iBorg and Tanlab (Companies authorized to use this submission), Closed-Market (Any character can use this if they have explicit permission through, for example, a marketplace purchase)
- Model: TL-09
- Modularity: No
- Production: Minor (Large groups of characters. (IE: A Single Major Faction, a few companies, or groups.)
- Material: Electronics, Agrinium, Desh-Terenthium, Mythra, Duralumin
- Classification: Neural Implant
- Size: Extremely Small
- Weight: Extremely Light
- Resistances (Optional): N/a
- Capable of Installing a Virtual Restraining Bolt within a droid after remotely interfacing with them, overriding the signal flow of a droids central processor to its body and components, in favor of signals sent through and received by the virtual Restraining Bolt. In essence, after interfacing with a droid, the user will be able to override all of the droid's functions if they so desired and control them as if they were them.
- Assuming Direct Control - No need for manual use of controls for droids or starships the neural interface is created with, your thoughts alone will be enough to take full command.
- Latency - Depending on the distance between the user and the connected device
- Information Clutter - If the augments safety processor malfunctions it can overload the user's mind with too much information.
- Avatar - This augment is intended to mold the user into the perception of the device they connect to, so use of their body at the same time that the augment is running may result in its safety processor malfunctioning and causing information clutter that disables the user's control and ability to disable the augment without outside assistance.
- Synaptic Misfire - Humanoid droid forms of 5 meters or more cause bizarre psychological reactions in users attempting to take direct control of them, the software confusing droid commands as body signals to be ignored, rendering them unable to be piloted beyond standing still. This seems to be the case even if the user is not strictly humanoid in shape. iBorg is still looking into the bizarre programming error but failing to progress in the debugging process they decided simply to release the otherwise functional implant system after the project overran budgeting and scheduling constraints.
