The '''SPARTAN neural interface''' is an upgrade of the standard [[neural interface]] that is used by [[SPARTAN programs|Spartan]] supersoldiers. | The '''SPARTAN neural interface''' is an upgrade of the standard [[neural interface]] that is used by [[SPARTAN programs|Spartan]] supersoldiers. [[Victor-101]] of [[Black Team]] was equipped with the upgrade at some point before the [[Battle of Line Installation 1-4]],<ref name="Bloodline">'''[[Halo: Bloodline #1]]'''</ref> though it was most notably issued to [[John-117]] upon his reception of the [[MJOLNIR Powered Assault Armor/Mark V|Mark V MJOLNIR armor]] during the [[Fall of Reach]] in [[2552#August|August 2552]] in order to allow him to mentally interface with the [[smart AI]] [[Cortana]].<ref name="TFOR">'''[[Halo: The Fall of Reach]]''', ''page ???''</ref> The other SPARTAN-IIs supposedly followed suit, as [[Naomi-010]] was equipped with a Spartan neural interface by [[2553#February|February 2553]]<ref>'''[[Halo: Glasslands]]''', ''page 211''</ref> and [[Fred-104]] had one implanted by July of that year.<ref>'''[[Halo: Last Light]]''', ''page 94''</ref> Like the standard-issue and [[command neural interface]]s, the SPARTAN neural interface can probably not be removed without advanced surgery or killing the host. The interface is also a standard addition to the [[SPARTAN-IV program|Spartan-IV]]s' [[SPARTAN-IV Augmentation Program|augmentations]].<ref>'''[[Halo: New Blood]]''', Chapter 14</ref> | ||

In addition to the standard functions of a neural interface, the SPARTAN neural interface is unique in that it is designed to allow an [[Artificial intelligence|AI construct]] to directly interface with the Spartan's brain. Therefore, the AI | In addition to the standard functions of a neural interface, the SPARTAN neural interface is unique in that it is designed to allow an [[Artificial intelligence|AI construct]] to directly interface with the Spartan's brain. Therefore, the AI is reside both inside the armor and inside the wearer's mind. Essentially, it is in both places at once. The interface allows the AI access to most of the suit's internal systems, though the Spartan has override control. The AI is capable of significantly improving the data transfer rate between the motor cortex of the Spartan and the MJOLNIR's processing unit, further improving the Spartan's already lightning-quick reaction time. | ||
The AI's [[data crystal chip]] is inserted into a socket near the base of the Spartan's skull through a slot in the MJOLNIR armor. | The AI's [[data crystal chip]] is inserted into a socket near the base of the Spartan's skull through a slot in the MJOLNIR armor. | ||
