Editing Sensorium

{{quote|A silent alarm throbs in [[Mia van der Venne|Mia]]'s sensorium, like a snake coiling around her wrist. Down in the residential blocks, one of her citizens has lifted one too many boxes and manifested presymptoms of a heart attack. EMTs are on the way, so it probably won't be the day's first death. Probably. Life burns so easily. It's her job to stand up to those who forget that.|[[Lore:Last Days on Kraken Mare|Last Days on Kraken Mare]]<ref>'''[[Lore:Last Days on Kraken Mare|Last Days on Kraken Mare]]''', [[Lore:Last_Days_on_Kraken_Mare#Faces_Like_Shields|Faces Like Shields]]</ref>}}

A '''sensorium''' is a personal augmented reality technology developed during the [[Golden Age]] that uses induced, hallucinatory sensory perceptions (including sight, hearing, and touch) to deliver information to its user. Sensoriums continue to be produced, and are installed in certain pieces of [[City Age]] armor<ref>'''Bungie (2014/12/9)''', ''[[Destiny]]: [[The Dark Below]] Playstation 4, Activision Blizzard, Item Description: [[Gravebreaker#Gravebreaker_2.1|Gravebreaker 2.1]]''</ref><ref>'''Bungie (2014/12/9)''', ''[[Destiny]]: [[The Dark Below]] Playstation 4, Activision Blizzard, Item Description: [[ATS/8 ARACHNID]]''</ref><ref>'''Bungie (2014/12/9)''', ''[[Destiny]]: [[The Dark Below]] Playstation 4, Activision Blizzard, Item Description: [[Stratus 3.1.3]]''</ref>, and utilized by the [[Awoken]] of [[the Reef]].<ref>'''Bungie (2018/9/4)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Forsaken]], Playstation 4, Activision Blizzard, Which Witch bounty''</ref> It is implied that the in-game heads-up display is provided by a sensorium.<ref>'''Bungie (2021/12/7)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[30th Anniversary Pack]] - [[Lore]]: [[Forerunner#Lore|Forerunner]]''</ref> Sensoriums can also be used as control interfaces, such as for piloting starships<ref>'''Bungie (2018/9/4)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Forsaken]], Playstation 4, Activision Blizzard, [[Lore]]: [[Lore:Marasenna#Cosmogyre_I|Marasenna, Cosmogyre I]]''</ref> or synthetic proxy bodies<ref>'''[[Mysterious Logbook]]''', "Entry 7", ''[[Mysterious_Logbook#-033-|Page 33]]''</ref>, or simply for transmitting messages.<ref>'''[[Mysterious Logbook]]''', "Entry 12", ''[[Mysterious_Logbook#Entry_12|Entry 12]]''</ref> A properly modified sensorium can even directly affect the brain: one palliative treatment for the [[House Bray|Bray family]]'s "Clovis Curse" of fatal insomnia was using a sensorium altered in this way to induce unconsciousness and "emulate sleep", though this would only slow the disease's progression.<ref>'''[[Mysterious Logbook]]''', "MESSAGE TO BRAY, ELISABETH", ''[[Mysterious_Logbook#MESSAGE_TO _BRAY,_ELISABETH|MESSAGE TO BRAY, ELISABETH]]''</ref>

Sensorium telemetry can be recorded, allowing users to re-experience a given moment in time with all their senses, even another person's. [[Mara Sov]], in her time as a crew member aboard the ''[[Yang Liwei]]'', developed a cult following for distributing sensorium recordings of herself experiencing near-death by exposure to open space without a spacesuit, allowing other crew members to vicariously experience the same.<ref>'''Bungie (2018/9/4)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Forsaken]], Playstation 4, Activision Blizzard, [[Lore]]: [[Lore:Marasenna#Brephos_II|Marasenna, Brephos II]]''</ref> After her transfer into an [[Exo]], [[Elsie Bray]] used sensorium reconstructions of her memories to compensate for her post-upload amnesia.<ref>'''[[Mysterious Logbook]]''', "Entry 13", ''[[Mysterious_Logbook#Entry_13|Entry 13]]''</ref>

Electromagnetic fields could interfere with sensoriums, reducing sensory inputs to static.<ref>'''Bungie (2020/3/10)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Season of the Worthy]], Playstation 4, [[Seventh Seraph Armor#Seventh Seraph Grasps / Gauntlets / Gloves|Seventh Seraph Grasps / Gauntlets / Gloves]]''</ref> When the Reef Awoken exited the [[Distributary]], the transit through the wormhole destroyed the sensoriums they had brought with them.<ref>'''Bungie (2018/9/4)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Forsaken]], Playstation 4, Activision Blizzard, [[Lore]]: [[Lore:The Awoken of the Reef#Revanche_I|The Awoken of the Reef, Revanche I]]''</ref>
