Assimilation (Star Trek)In the universe of Star Trek, a popular science-fiction television series of TV shows, the term assimilate which often refers to the way that a fictional race, the Borg, incorporate aliens into their collective. Assimilation is a process that the Borg race used to integrate a being into the collective structure. The process is introduced by injecting nano-probes into one's neck using the drone's assimilation-tube. When the nano-probes are injected into one's body, they start to transform the body in a cell-by-cell basis. The process can be treated as an initialization procedure of a drone. Assimilation Procedures Assimilation is, in fact, a very complicated procedure, as are all recruitment procedures. Before finishing installing the nano-probes, the communication and interoperation infrastructure to the drone, it must go through at least 3 steps. Step 1: Neural Pathway Rebuilding The process is to analyze the memory and the consciousness patterns in the drone. The Borg is capable of assimilating at least 38 types of intelligent patterns into their collective consciousness. Each of them requires a specialized adapter to be implanted into the cerebral cortex, often referred to as a Cortical Implant. Even for the same race, the cortical implant needs to be adjusted in order to avoid pattern confliction. Step 2: Cybernetic Implants Mechanical implants will be installed to the drone in order to enhance biological deficiencies. Ordinary components include trigonanmica visioning system, titanium skeleton, force field generator, subspace transponder, neural link connector, hanseminagint hearing system, and artificial internal organs. Step 3: Specialized Implants After analyzing the intelligence patterns, the collective will determine the proper function for a drone. With different duties to carry out, the drone must be equipped with different specialized implants.
