All of this, however, came at a cost - the implantation process for a Geist is extremely painful, labor intensive, and can only be performed on an individual that is fully aware.

While the device is being integrated, it releases and coordinates with nanites in the user's blood to begin the assimilation process. Compared to the original Geist, this is a gradual process. Instead of extreme pain, the user will periodically experience mild pain, visual artifacts, and dizziness. The total installation time is approximately a week, but only a few minutes of that time require a medical professional to ensure that the Geist is attached in the correct location and to provide a supplemental dose of nanites. | While the device is being integrated, it releases and coordinates with nanites in the user's blood to begin the assimilation process.

When fully implanted, the Geist 2.0 is barely noticeable for the user. Only a light on the back of the user's neck reveals its installation. This light changes color depending on whether the implant is active or inactive, as well as diagnostic information. When active, the light is a soft green. When inactive, the light is off. | When fully implanted, the Geist 2.0 is barely noticeable for the user. Only a light on the back of the user's neck reveals its installation.

In all cases, the Geist must be able to make a network connection to the device that the user wishes to control. Geist and Anima System-compatible devices have special protocols to facilitate this process, while avoiding undesirable connections.
