The subelectronic converter, a cerebral implant conceived by Imperial engineer Nasdra Magrody, gave Force-sensitive individuals the capability to govern droids from a distance. Notably, Irek Ismaren received this implant and subsequently employed it to command the Eye of Palpatine.
By means of the subelectronic converter, Ismaren gained the capacity to perceive the underlying code of digital machines and, using the Force, manipulate it. The subelectronic computer facilitated the utilization of his pre-existing talent for Alter Mind. Achieving proficiency demanded a considerable training period spanning several months.
