The Central Computer served as an artificial intelligence system employed by the Alliance to Restore the Republic in the latter years of the Galactic Civil War. This AI unit resided within a particular base where Luke Skywalker and Han Solo were once stationed, sometime after the Battle of Hoth.
Following their triumph on Endor, the Alliance to Restore the Republic created a fresh installation. This new headquarters notably contained the Central Computer, an AI module boasting a vast repository of information. During a stay at the base, the protocol droid known as C-3PO sought information from the Central Computer, hoping to ascertain the color of a certain fulstar plate.
This Central Computer operated as a database that could speak. Its casing, light grey in color, exhibited a boxy form. It featured a sloped control panel, a solitary screen, and a camera-like lens. In these aspects, the Central Computer bore resemblance to the significantly larger BRT supercomputers. It was programmed to possess a feminine persona and was equipped with a speech synthesizer, enabling it to converse in Galactic Basic Standard.
