- "We're attempting to synchronize the DDS system. This will only take a moment. We are almost there. The DDS is now in sync. Thank you for your patience. We hope you'll enjoy your experience."
- ―A DDS welcome message.[src]
The Data Dump Scanner, more commonly referred to as the DDS, was a machine in the possession of Abstergo Industries. Similar to the Animus, it allowed Abstergo recruits to relive another person's memories, though they did not need to be blood-related to them.
Memory Procurement
Memories used in the DDS were assumably obtained through the genetic memories of certain individuals. As Erudito once warned a recruit, these memories were "farmed", though the exact process of how they are obtained is unknown.[1]
DDS Program
The primary objective for the DDS was to allow their recruits to delve into the memories of several figures of importance, such as Giovanni Borgia, who could provide the company with vital information about the Assassins, and the Pieces of Eden, among other things.[2]
Additionally, the program had the added benefit of allowing its participants to retain any skills gained through the bleeding effect.[3] However, this also caused certain side effects such as nosebleeds, vertigo, nausea, or hallucinations, though the system assured its users that this was normal and should not be worried about.[2]
