This appears to be the same as, or nearly the same as, one of your earlier works you did for Origin; The Silhouette

What makes this thing different than its predecessor, and why would we need it if something nearly identical already exists?
 
It isn't specifically designed for use in armour. That is a thing its capable of, yes, but it augments the users intelligence in ways normally only possible with synthetic intelligence for better decision making. There's also the networking and scalability, you must understand.

This isn't something specific to the cockpit, like Silhouette: This is a whole paradigm of systems control and arguably to become part of the backbone of how the consortium (a group which relies enormously on automation) is to function.

Would you be okay with some RP crossover, indicating the same person wrote both systems (thus showing their similarities)?

I'm dying to do some collaboration with you and Origin, Kai. You decide the need and its required stats and I'll make the imagery and the tech blurb behind it. I hate writing stats.
 
Sorry, I've been busy running some RP threads. Also, I'm not actually a tech mod, so you need to get someone else to do that. I don't see any problem with explaining that it was the same person that made both systems, since you made both of them anyway. You've mostly addressed my concerns, although I will admit that I have adapted and borrowed things from the Silhouette to perform these exact functions in systems like the FATE IES and the Consort AI that was developed with it and now used to control the Mimicom Android.
 
That's fine: We'll be doing the same with ARIA. It'll be fun going toe to toe with you at some point in the future.
