Holographic avatar

From Battlestar Wiki, the free, open content Battlestar Galactica encyclopedia and episode guide

A holographic avatar is a digital, sentient copy of a person, created by uploading their memories and DNA into a hologram^[1].

Zoe Graystone, who inherited her father's brilliant computer skills, has found a way to create an online holographic avatar of herself, Zoe-A. After her death in a suicide bombing caused by her boyfriend, Ben Stark, Zoe-A is uploaded by Daniel Graystone into a robot body, the first Cylon known as Zoe-R. Similarly, her boyfriend also uploaded his personality into an avatar known as Ben-A, who is in contact only with Sister Clarice Willow.

Notes

• This technology might have formed the basis of the Cylons' resurrection.
