Helix

Helix is a cloud-based software developed by Abstergo Entertainment.

A continuation of the Data Dump Scanner, a creation of Àlvaro Gramática, the Helix software allowed for accounts of various Templars and Assassins throughout history, with propaganda based narrations delivered by Abstergo in favor of the former, delivered to the public via a games console style format. Using the headsets, Abstergo can also collect players' genetic data.

Through Helix, a research analyst at Abstergo Entertainment relived Shay Cormac's memories and fixed the damage caused by a virus hidden within Shay's memory bank.

Around the same time, an individual associated with the Assassins used a game console running on the Helix software to relive the memories of Arno Dorian.
