Halo Game's - Auntie Dot

Friday, October 08, 2010


Do you know Auntie Dot? I’ll give you a clue. Her first appearance was in Halo Reach. She is widely known in speaking in a calm, dry, articulate voice, showing little emotion compared to the famous AI Cortana. Because of her characteristics, she’s classified as a “Dumb” AI.

Auntie Dot is an Artificial Intelligence constructed by UNSC at the time of the Fall of Reach. Her responsibilities are to monitor and to assist the Noble Team during the battle, and also to make the team’s members stay connected while they were launching on separate missions. She does it by observing the team in the battle through security cameras and satellites over Reach in an unknown actual location. In the end, it was not mentioned if Dot survived the Fall of Reach and what were her activities afterwards.

What’s special with Auntie Dot? Unlike to other AI who personifies in the form of a humanoid avatar, she has different personal representation. Hers is a grid of glowing and blue lights that constantly changing. Her grid is displayed in loading screen of Reach in Halo. The grid accompanies the credits sequence to Reach, and it displays a Seven before it completely fades into darkness. It is believed that one of the loading screen images of Auntie Dot could be a reference to the AI’s Superintendent as it appears a circle-like shape with two eyes in the center.
Here’s a trivia of Auntie Dot. The voice of Carole Ruggler was used by Auntie Dot. It was also used in Reach’s firefight mode in Halo.
