'''Memory extraction''' is the process of extracting the [[Genetic memory|genetic memories]] from an individual's DNA. Such a practice is utilized by [[Abstergo Industries]], for which they use the [[Animus]] to explore and study the extracted memories.
 
 
Instances of the practice by Abstergo Industries include the extraction of genetic memories of [[Animus Project|Animus subjects]] who did not voluntarily cooperate with Abstergo's [[Animus Project]].<ref name="AC3">''[[Assassin's Creed III]]''</ref> These extracted memories would then be relived by Abstergo research analysts and agents to obtain information on the [[Assassins|Assassin Order]] and the [[Pieces of Eden]], notably during their [[Project Legacy]] initiative, until it was shut down in 2012 due to security concerns.<ref name="ACPL">''[[Assassin's Creed: Project Legacy]]''</ref><ref name="ACR">''[[Assassin's Creed: Revelations]]''</ref>
 
 
Extracted memories were also used to train Abstergo agents via the [[Animi Training Program]] in the company's [[Rome|Roman]] facility,<ref name="ACB">''[[Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood]]''</ref> in order for them to be effective in combating the remnants of the Assassin Order.<ref name="ACR"/>
 
 
In late 2012, Abstergo Industries' [[Abstergo Entertainment|entertainment division]] released a home console version of the Animus packaged with extracted memories for gaming purposes. The console Animus allowed players to use extracted memories to compete against each other in simulated matches,<ref name="AC3"/> as well as allowing the general public to relive the life of [[Aveline de Grandpré]], though Abstergo released a heavily edited version of her memories to help subconsciously further their aims.<ref name="AC3L">''[[Assassin's Creed III: Liberation]]''</ref>
