This artificial and sentient personality, initially designed by young engineering genius Benjamin Sandeker, provides users with a friendly interface able to understand commands and reconfigure ship functionality on the fly. The Artificial Intelligence "Carsi" is able to learn from its interactions from the crew and from experiences; it takes care silently of most of the routine tasks aboard the ship. Carsi tends to be considered as a crew member like any other of the crew than like a computer program.  History: Developed first as a prototype under the direction of Admiral Terence Ogby. the Ascendant-class was developed as a prototype heavy cruiser. Ethical debates raged over the Federation Council and the Advanced Starship Design Bureau: it was considered unreasonable and unethical to give so much power to an artificial intelligence over a starship, when personality routines have been deliberately kept out of LCARS for years. As a result, many limitations to the AI's power have been introduced to keep it as an assistant to the captain, and not the other way around.   "Doc" (NPC)Assignment: Emergency Medical Hologram (EMH) Mark IIAvatar: Human (Male) Image: The Starfleet Emergency Medical Hologram (EMH) program is modeled after Dr. Zimmerman's appearance, a middle-aged human with pronounced balding hair.  Personality: The EMH program is a very thorough medical program, the one thing it lacks is a bedside manner. The EMH is programmed with over 5 million treatments from 2,000 medical references and 47 physicians. The program also uses a learning algorithm, allowing it to learn and adapt to new situations.  History: The EMH program was introduced in 2368 in various new Starfleet classes of ships including the Ascendant class. The EMH was programmed by Dr. Lewis Zimmerman of the Jupiter Station Holoprogramming Center, assisted by diagnostic engineer Lt. Reginald Barclay. The EMH is meant as a short-term supplement to a starship's medical staff during an emergency. The EMH is only able to function in areas equipped with holographic projectors.   "Scotty" (NPC)Assignment: Emergency Engineering Hologram (EEH)Avatar: Human (Male) Image: The Starfleet Emergency Engineering Hologram is based off of the Emergency Medical Hologram. The hologram was programmed to look like a young Commander Montgomery Scott, but his uniform has the same yellow color as the rest of the operations crew.  Personality: The EEH program is a very thorough engineering program, programmed with all of the detailed technical schematics and systems of the Ascendant. The Hologram's programming has been limited to be a helper to the Chief Engineer of the starship.  History: The EEH program was introduced in 2370 in various new Starfleet classes of ships including the Ascendant class. The EEH was programmed by Dr. Lewis Zimmerman of the Jupiter Station Holoprogramming Center, assisted by diagnostic engineer Lt. Reginald Barclay. Captain Montgomery Scott was brought in as the template after being found suspended in a transporter beam on the USS Jenolen. The EEH is meant as a short-term supplement to a starship's engineering staff during an emergency. The EEH is only able to function in areas equipped with holographic projectors.</blockquote>
