An '''armored matrix''', also called a '''memory matrix''',<ref>'''[[Halo: The Great Journey: The Art of Building Worlds]]''', ''page 113''</ref> is a reinforced housing used by the [[United Nations Space Command|UNSC]] to securely transport an [[artificial intelligence]] construct. An armored matrix may be used when a [[holotank]] is not available, such as on a battlefield. Though the AI contained within can communicate verbally, there is no hologram emitter for it to manifest a body; hence, the AI can talk, but it cannot see.<ref name="Flood">'''[[Halo: The Flood]]''', ''page 317''</ref> | An '''armored matrix''', also called a '''memory matrix''',<ref>'''[[Halo: The Great Journey: The Art of Building Worlds]]''', ''page 113''</ref> is a reinforced housing used by the [[United Nations Space Command|UNSC]] to securely transport an [[artificial intelligence]] construct.

Class-C Military AIs serving under [[Orbital Drop Shock Troopers|ODST]] commanding officers are carried in armored matrices aboard the officers' [[Single Occupant Exoatmospheric Insertion Vehicle|SOEIVs]]. In this manner they may ride into a combat zone intact and be further operated when a [[Military base|firebase]] or other operational command post is put into place. | Class-C Military AIs serving under [[Orbital Drop Shock Troopers|ODST]] commanding officers are carried in armored matrices aboard the officers' [[Single Occupant Exoatmospheric Insertion Vehicle|SOEIVs]].
