Often present in the form of spherical shapes, these cores are a more simplistic design as their purpose had been more at hand instead. This contrasts with the majority of the designs of Aperture androids in the Enrichment Center that are personality core-based such as [[Atlas]] (enclosed core design), [[P-body]] (core inputs), and [[Turrets#Sentry Turret|turrets]] (also core inputs). | Often present in the form of spherical shapes, these cores are a more simplistic design as their purpose had been more at hand instead.
