The '''automaton''', also known as '''Da-vi''', is found in [[Elemental Workshop IV]] after powering up the Cosmic machine. Once you solve the puzzle, he will be powered up by operating the draining machine and will move onto the next room to open the doors for you.

He is given orders in a rudimentary computer system that consists of an "address" and "command" block. The address block instructs the automaton where to go and the command block tells which action to perform there.

== Trivia ==
*It is possible that 'Da-vi' refers to [[wikipedia:Leonardo da Vinci|Leonardo da Vinci]] because in the book it says Vitruvius was inspired to name it by a picture drawn by an old artist friend of his. The drawing being referenced might be the [[wikipedia:Vitruvian Man|Vitruvian Man]], which was drawn based on the writings of the real-life [[wikipedia:Vitruvius|Vitruvius]].
*An Automaton is defined as a self-operating machine, or robot, and originates from the ancient Greek term ''αὐτόματον,'' meaning "acting of one's own will".
*It is also possible that the automaton's name, Da-vi, refers to the NPC [[Da Vinci]], who played a role in the [[Biohazard]] quest.
